How to survive a UFO attack

UFOs in the LHC have proven to be a potential threat to machine availability. While the correlation of peak losses with beam intensity had initially indicated a potential limitation , the fast advance of the conditioning effect appears to have saved the day. In this presentation we present our curre...

Sumario:UFOs in the LHC have proven to be a potential threat to machine availability. While the correlation of peak losses with beam intensity had initially indicated a potential limitation , the fast advance of the conditioning effect appears to have saved the day. In this presentation we present our current understanding of the UFO threat, and the BLM strategy to optimize machine availability and machine protection .
