Description

All experiments will have installed their detector set-ups and will be ready for commissioning with beam at the start of LHC operation. The physics programme is expected to be rich even at the projected initial luminosities. This paper presents the requirements and expectations of the experiments for single beams, early collisions, the pilot physics run, the heavy-ion run and the special proton runs, and may be used subsequently to set priorities in order to exploit optimally the first LHC beams for physics
