We introduce and compute the generalized disconnection exponents $eta_kappa(beta)$ which depend on $kappain(0,4]$ and another real parameter $beta$, extending the Brownian disconnection exponents (corresponding to $kappa=8/3$) computed by Lawler, Schramm and Werner 2001 (conjectured by Duplantier and Kwon 1988). For $kappain(8/3,4]$, the generalized disconnection exponents have a physical interpretation in terms of planar Brownian loop-soups with intensity $cin (0,1]$, which allows us to obtain the first prediction of the dimension of multiple points on the cluster boundaries of these loop-soups. In particular, according to our prediction, the dimension of double points on the cluster boundaries is strictly positive for $cin(0,1)$ and equal to zero for the critical intensity $c=1$, leading to an interesting open question of whether such points exist for the critical loop-soup. Our definition of the exponents is based on a certain general version of radial restriction measures that we construct and study. As an important tool, we introduce a new family of radial SLEs depending on $kappa$ and two additional parameters $mu, u$, that we call radial hypergeometric SLEs. This is a natural but substantial extension of the family of radial SLE$_kappa(rho)s$.
