Overview Since Last Meeting (2) Before Next Meeting Running Schedule Bunch Evolution (3) Year-End Shutdown Shutdown Activities (2) On the To-Do List Overview Bruce Barnett- RAL/STFC
Rhythm: Smooth triggering Module replacements 2 PPMs, 1 CMM A handful of MCMs Enhancements DB, calibration, monitoring, software, operational Increasing Luminosity Machine commissioning Technical Stops ~ 6 week periodicity Tests, scans, calib updates, checks etc… Um And to add spice a little bit of noise from our much appreciated calorimeter friends! Since Last Meeting (1/2) Bruce Barnett- RAL/STFC
Achievements Operational Highlights: FCAL Mapping Calibration FJ triggers Beam Optimised Timing OVP Timing work And lots more … Performance Highlights: Illustrated by a lot of very nice work from a great offline crew! (this meeting) Since Last Meeting (2/2) Bruce Barnett- RAL/STFC
Special Runs Timing: Peak Mapping Larg Layer timing Alan’s List What are the priorities Before 2011 For 2011 A lots more lovely physics Before Next Meeting Bruce Barnett- RAL/STFC
Running Schedule Bruce Barnett- RAL/STFC
Bunch trains with 150 ns spacing The number of bunches per LHC injection will be increased in time Start probably with 4 bunches/LHCinj, then 8, then 12, then 24, then 36 (Brennan & team’s plan) number of identical LHC injections per beam should be a multiple of 4 (main bunch series), plus one for ALICE LPC, 13 Sept. http://indico.cern.ch/conferenceDisplay.py?confId=106926 Bunch Evolution (1/3) Bruce Barnett- RAL/STFC
Bunch Evolution (2/3)(one possibility) always a multiple of 4 actual PS trains IP2 bunches (=collisions)
Bunch Evolution (3/3)( if 12-bunch injection available from start…) * change manually the cycle, or give 1x12 to IP2 as well always a multiple of 4 actual PS trains IP2 bunches (=collisions)
Planned End of Run: December 6, 2010: Open Opening/Closing “8 weeks is the best that can be done, giving access on one side only” Access to Barrel and End cap calorimeters granted for 8 days (including January 1st !) currently [Aug 31 open EB] side C is the baseline Close: 28/01/2011 Year-End Shutdown Detail of the access to the calorimeters Start after To+23d Bruce Barnett- RAL/STFC

Wikipedia: Puddleglum appears in The Silver Chair, in which he is a principal character. He also appears briefly at the end of The Last Battle. “Puddleglum is an uncommonly cheerful marsh-wiggle; however, as marsh-wiggles are best-known for their pessimism, he is still a rather gloomy fellow, described by other characters as a "wet blanket".
