Description
The procedure for ramping the LHC is clearly defined with particular
attention to
power converters, RF and controls. The necessary pre-testing of all
systems is
detailed. Snapback will pose a challenge and the strategy for
dealing with it during
initial beam commissioning is revisited. Measurements and system
commissioning to be
performed during the ramp commissioning phase are detailed. The
demands on key
subsystems such as feedback, RMS and instrumentation are stated.
