A1.00001: Status of the CERN Large Hadron Collider and first beam operation Invited Speaker: I will give an account of the work carried out to repair the LHC following the accident of September 2008. In addition I will describe the measures undertaken to ensure that such an event will not reoccur, including the improvements in the magnet protection system and the reduction of the resulting collateral damage. I will also provide the first results of beam operation in the collider. [Preview Abstract] |
Saturday, February 13, 2010 9:06AM - 9:42AM |
A1.00002: ATLAS Status and First Results Invited Speaker: The ATLAS Experiment at the CERN Large Hadron Collider will study a broad range of particle physics at the highest available laboratory energies, from measurements of the standard model to searches for new physics beyond the standard model. The status of ATLAS commissioning and the ATLAS physics program will be reported, and physics prospects for the 2010 LHC run will be discussed. [Preview Abstract] |

A1.00003: CMS Status and First Results Invited Speaker: After nearly two decades of design, construction, commissioning, and preparation for physics, the CMS detector will be operated with colliding proton beams in late 2009 and much of 2010. After a short period of operation at 900 GeV center of mass energy, the LHC will have two running periods in which it will ramp up to collision energies of 7 TeV and 8-10 TeV, respectively. This will be new territory in the history of hadron colliders. In this talk I will present the readiness and performance of the CMS detector as established in several stages of commissioning, provide an overview of the CMS plan for very early physics studies and finally, I will also provide first results of the performance of CMS in pp collisions at 900 GeV and 7 TeV if they are available.
