p-Pb Feasibility Test and Modifications of LHC Sequence and Interlocking

The first part of the feasibility test of p-Pb operation of the LHC successfully demonstrated the possibility of injecting Pb bunches in the presence of many proton bunches without apparent harmful effects from moving long-range beam-beam encounters. Two bunches in each beam were accelerated to top...

description The first part of the feasibility test of p-Pb operation of the LHC successfully demonstrated the possibility of injecting Pb bunches in the presence of many proton bunches without apparent harmful effects from moving long-range beam-beam encounters. Two bunches in each beam were accelerated to top energy where the RF frequencies of the two rings could be locked together. Finally an RF-rephasing operation to move the collision points some 9 km, back to their proper places succeeded on the first attempt. This note also provides documentation of the many changes made to the LHC operational sequence and interlocking in order to implement this completely new mode of collider operation.
