Description
The TOTEM experiment requires special running conditions in terms of
beams, optics and stability around IR5.In addition TOTEM requests
short one day runs at regular time intervals. Similar requirements
apply to luminosity measurement runs at IR1. Dedicated time will have
to be devoted to the commissioning of the TOTEM machine cycle and for
each run, additional setup time must be foreseen for machine and
optics checkout. Strategies for sheduling beam time for TOTEM will be
discussed in the light of the experience with polarization at LEP
that had similar requirements. Some delicate points, like collimation
with very small emittance, extreme requirements on beam position
stability and accuracy will be analysed.
