13.12.2009: Wire Scans During STABLE Beams Beam2 horizontal: Beam2 vertical Comparing beam size from wire with synchrotron light monitor Wire: sx = 0.98mm sy = 3.0mmBSRT: sx = 1.10mm, sy = 2.7mm ca factor 2 between sy and sx

?? CMS solenoid changes the beam energy ?? NO! But Earth tides do! Joerg Ramp up coincided with large tidal change – good agreement ! Tidal swing corresponds to ~ 15 Hz. LHC measures influence of tidal forces 10 days after 1st Beam! 7
Beam commissioning strategy Mike’s cunning plan Global machine checkout Essential 450 GeV commissioning Trial ramps Machine protection commissioning 1 Experiments’ magnets at 450 GeV All has been accomplished! + Xmas 450 GeV collisions Ramp commissioning to 1.2 TeV System/beam commissioning Machine protection commissioning 2 3.5 TeV beam & first collisions 2010 Full machine protection qualification System/beam commissioning Pilot physics
