LHC Beam Operation workshop - Evian 2012

→ Europe/Zurich
Hotel Ermitage

Hotel Ermitage

Mike LAMONT
Description


 

The LHC Beam Operation workshop will be held on 17-20 December 2012 in the Hotel Ermitage in EVIAN (74), France.

Attendance is by invitation only.

                                                                                                                                                                           

The principle aims of the workshop are to:

  • review and capture 2012 LHC beam operations experience;
  • review system performance;
  • examine the foreseen challenges and limitations of post long shutdown operations;
  • have a look at possible running scenarios in the post long shutdown era.

 
There will be five sessions covering:

  • operational availability;
  • the operational cycle;
  • system performance and outlook;
  • performance limitations and outlook;
  • scenarios for 2014/2015.
