Description
For each beam injection into the LHC a well-defined
series of beam quality checks needs to be made,
starting in the SPS just before extraction and in the LHC
immediately after injection. These checks will be
dependent on the beam type, intensity and position in
the filling sequence, and will use transient data which
must be acquired and analysed at the appropriate time
and within a specified time window. The requirements
in terms of functionality, response times and scope are
described, and the equipment subsystems identified.
Potential issues are discussed.
