Timeline: First LHC Beams 7-9 September Single shots of beam 1 onto closed collimator 150m upstream of CMS (“beam splash” events) 10 September (Media Day!) Beam 1 circulated in the morning, 3 turns within 1 hour! Beam 2 circulated by 3:00pm, 300 turns by evening 11 September RF system captures beam at evening (millions of orbits) BEAM Collimators 146m CMS Debris Beam Splash Schematic Beam 2, E=450 GeV Beam 1, E=450 GeV CMS The Large Hadron Collider 19 September Faulty electrical connection between dipole and quadrupole failed, resulting in massive helium loss, cryogenics and vacuum lost Beam elements being removed and replaced/repaired During all these activities, CMS triggered and recorded data ~40 hours of beam to CMS First CMS Results with LHC Beam Toyoko Orimoto, Caltech

Toyoko Orimoto, Caltech Beam Halo Muons Beam Halo: Muons outside of beam-pipe, arising from decays of pions created when off-axis protons scrape collimators or other beamline elements Endcap Muon Cathode Strip Chamber Hits from Beam Halo Events Muon Endcap Layer -1 Muon Endcap Layer -2 Muon Endcap Layer -3 Muon Endcap Layer -4 LHC Tunnel Profile A useful tool for alignment and time synchronization BEAM First CMS Results with LHC Beam Toyoko Orimoto, Caltech
Toyoko Orimoto, Caltech Beam Halo Muons 1 muon 3 muons Reconstructed Tracks Endcap muon chambers Three muons are reconstructed in the Cathode Strip Chambers (CSC's). The chambers with hits are shown as trapezoidal volumes in white, with yellow strips running in the radial direction, and purple wires running in the azimuthal direction. The long blue lines threading several chambers represent muon trajectories reconstructed offline. One line appears to be bent due to multiple scattering of the muon in the calorimeter. This particular beam halo / beam gas event is unusual in having three reconstructed muons; most events have one.

Halo and Cosmic Muon Angles Angle of Muon Tracks wrt Beam Line beam ON data = beam halo MC + cosmic ray data The normalization of the blue and black histograms are not based on any calculation; they are meant to guide the eye. Beam halo muons to make a small angle Cosmic Ray muons pass through the CSCs at a more oblique angle Beam-on distribution consists of two pieces, one resembling cosmic rays and the other matching the beam halo simulation.

Beam Halo Before and After RF Capture First RF capture of beam Beam Halo Rates in Muon Endcaps Muon Endcap (CSC) halo trigger rate in the minus endcap vs time. First successful capture lasted for 10 min and ended with beam abort HCAL Endcap Peak Energy Location & Amp time h:m Before After HCAL Endcap Energy Before, high rate of energy deposition near beamline. After, beam is cleaner, depositing less energy in HCAL endcap. This plot shows the CSC halo trigger rate in the MINUS endcap as a function of time. The yellowish band indicates the first successful RF capture of the LHC beam (beam 2) which lasted about 10min (and ended with the first automatic beam abort). One sees rate jumps preceding this due to earlier capture attempts. These rates are defined by averaging over a 10 s interval.
