The LHC Sector Test

The proposal to inject beam into a sector of the partially completed LHC is presented. The test will provide an important milestone, force preparation of a number of key systems, and allow a number of critical measurements with beam. The motivation for the test is discussed, along with the proposed...

Sumario:The proposal to inject beam into a sector of the partially completed LHC is presented. The test will provide an important milestone, force preparation of a number of key systems, and allow a number of critical measurements with beam. The motivation for the test is discussed, along with the proposed beam studies, the radiation issues and the potential impact on ongoing installation. The demands on the various accelerator systems implicated are presented along with the scheduling of the preparatory steps, the test itself and the recovery phase.
