Description
We give an overview of the strategy used for the magnetic modeling of the LHC. Magnetic measurements are fit with a set of parametric equations (FiDeL) based on decomposition of the main components of the magnetic field. These equations are impelmented in the LHC control system LSA,which is the tool used to power the magnets. A dedicated code (WISE) creates the input files for tracking codes (MAD), providing the best knowledge of the accelerator field quality. An overiview of the main results of the early phase of LHC beam commissioning and the main critical issues are outlined.
