  4. 99. The LHC machine status, commissioning plans and interface with the experiments
    Dr Daniela Macina (CERN)
    03/09/2007, 15:15
    Oral
    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...

  5. 100. The Time Projection Chamber for the ALICE Experiment
    Luciano Musa (CERN)
    03/09/2007, 16:30
    Oral
    ALICE will search for evidence for quark-gluon plasma, the state of matter which is believed to have existed just after the Big Bang, in head-on collisions of lead-ions at the LHC. This requires a very precise tracking capability to record the paths of thousands of particles produced in the collisions. ALICE is therefore built around the largest Time Projection Chamber (TPC) in the world. The...

  6. 118. Distributed Power Architectures for Computing Systems
    Prof. Giorgio Spiazzi (University of Padova, Department of Information Engineering - DEI)
    03/09/2007, 17:15
    Oral
    Nowadays computing systems comprise a large number of different processing equipment (servers, routers, etc.) with a total power consumption up to some megawatts. In these applications system-level issues like system and component architectures, modeling, control, power management, overall efficiency are of major concern. Different distributed power architectures are firstly reviewed,...
