Evian 2010 Workshop on LHC Commissioning

The Evian 2010 workshop on LHC commissioning aimed to review the 2009 LHC beam commissioning and beam operations experience, and to look forward to the continued commissioning and operation of the LHC with beam in 2010. Beam related experiences from injection to stable beams were discussed. Issues addressed were the measurements and observations versus expectations; problems encountered; the performance of software and controls; and necessary improvements. The readiness for 3.5TeV running was also covered. As an outcome, the workshop proposed a 2010 beam re-commissioning plan for 3.5 TeV operation.
