Description

  • Keywords: LIU target performance, risks, mitigations, challenges for post-LIU and beam commissioning, protons and ions
  • Questions to be answered:
    • What are the baseline beam parameters for LIU and the alternative production schemes (protons and ions)?
    • What are the assumptions, do we need to review any of the assumptions based on 2018 experience or gained knowledge on some other items?
    • What we can definitely tick out from Run 2 experience and what we still need to study in LS2 and prove in Run 3 (simulation and post-LS2 MDs)?
    • How to balance pushing performance for protons and ions after LS2? Is slip-stacking with ions feasible in the first year?
    • Bunch-by-bunch variations within trains?
