Plan of the day 30/10/2015 LHC Morning meeting – WH & JW 2 skipped + BI test done beam lost in ramp being prepared, injectors checking

Thursday daytime Set-up of 2.51 TeV cycle for reference run ramp with probes – 8:10 probes in – 12:20 collide & TeV to 4 m – Q, Q’ orbit  ok – Beta beating < 20% – Ready for nominals: to do’s Align TCTs, find collisions MPS validation at FT and in collisions Intensity ramp up and, Q, Q’ for high intensity 30/10/2015 LHC Morning meeting – WH & JW 3

Feedbacks (2.5 TeV cycle) 30/10/2015 LHC Morning meeting – WH & JW 4 Feedbacks behaved and Fidel model after ramp down to 450 GeV ok.

Flat Top RF TeV 30/10/2015 LHC Morning meeting – WH & JW 5 For dispersion measurement

Arduini 30/10/2015 LHC Morning meeting – WH & JW 13

BCMS Filling scheme 30/10/2015 LHC Morning meeting – WH & JW 14 Injection kicker length to be adjusted
