Injection into LHC of single bunches with nominal intensity

As part of the 2010 LHC commissioning, the intensity of a single INDIV injected bunch was increased from 1e10 to 1.1e11. Some preliminary tests with high intensity bunches to the TL TEDs were used to verify the beam stability and transverse profiles. The injection protection systems TDI and TCDI wer...

Sumario:As part of the 2010 LHC commissioning, the intensity of a single INDIV injected bunch was increased from 1e10 to 1.1e11. Some preliminary tests with high intensity bunches to the TL TEDs were used to verify the beam stability and transverse profiles. The injection protection systems TDI and TCDI were first set up around the beam to their nominal settings. The machine protection system requires overinjection of the beam onto a low intensity circulating beam, which was also commissioned. This note briefly describes the problems encountered together with the main results, and lists the issues which remain to be solved.
