Dr Daniela Macina (CERN)

Description

The status of the ongoing Large Hadron Collider (LHC) installation is described with particular attention to the Long Straight Sections around the experiments. A summary of the present beam commissioning schedule will be given with some details on the beam conditions during first collisions. The second part of this talk will address in detail the experiment protection system from beam failures (including interlocks) and the exchange of data and control signals between the accelerator and the experiments.
