Description

The RF equipment of the LHC injector chain (Linac2, Linac3, PSB, LEIR, PS and SPS) is considered with scrutiny in view of its reliable operation. We analyse present and past failures and weaknesses of the different RF systems and indicate planned, started or implemented remedies. We equally try to anticipate future risks that may jeopardize reliable operation and give strategies for their mitigation.
