Description
Aim: - to discuss ‘LIU / HL-LHC’ interface subjects - to discuss possible improvements (strategies, equipment improvements, schedule, beam parameters) beneficial for both projects - to clarify misunderstanding and identify parameter mismatch - to update parameter tables if needed - to ensure coherency of timeline and decisions between the two projects (e.g. ions)
