Description

LHC beams and luminosity evolution during the 2010 Run with some estimates on future projections. Present intensity limitations from operational experience and machine availability. Hints on upgrade beam parameters based on LHC experience (for example, lower emittance and higher than nominal beam-beam tune shift)
