Operational Experience with First Circulating Beam in the LHC

Following a series of injection tests, the first attempts to pass beam around both directions of the LHC were successful and led rapidly to circulating beam in the counter clockwise direction (beam 2) and many turns of beam 1. Unfortunately the beam commissioning was curtailed by the incident in sec...

description Following a series of injection tests, the first attempts to pass beam around both directions of the LHC were successful and led rapidly to circulating beam in the counter clockwise direction (beam 2) and many turns of beam 1. Unfortunately the beam commissioning was curtailed by the incident in sector 34. However, measurements performed during this first commissioning period showed that the magnet model of the machine had delivered optics close to nominal and also very good performance of beam instrumentation and supporting software. Details of the machine set-up and the commissioning procedures are given. The measurements performed and the key results from this period are described.
