4. 2015 strategy Low intensity commissioning of full cycle – 2 months First stable beams – low number of bunches LHCf and Van der Meer Scrubbing for 50 ns (partially with 25 ns) Intensity ramp-up with 50 ns – Commissioning continued: system (instrumentation, RF, TFB etc.), injection, machine protection, instrumentation… – Characterize vacuum, heat load, electron cloud, losses, instabilities, UFOs, impedance Scrubbing for 25 ns 25 ns operation – relaxed beta* Commission lower beta* 25 ns operation (Ramp-up: all year in 2010, 4 months in 2011, 2 weeks in 2012)
