Conceptual Design Review of the “LHC Interaction Regions Upgrade – Phase-I”

Thursday 31 Jul 2008, 08:45 → 18:00 Europe/Zurich

AT Auditorium (CERN)

Lyn Evans (CERN)

The purpose of the review is to present and discuss the conceptual design of the new interaction regions IR1 and IR5 that are proposed for the Phase-I of LHC luminosity upgrade. The review will focus in particular on the main parameters of the new low-beta quadrupoles, and on the layout options and their implications on the infrastructure. Organizers: Ranko Ostojic, Lyn Evans (Chairman)
