Accelerator Report: Beam is back in the LHC
On Wednesday 22 March, the LHC machine, the injection beam lines and all the experiments were closed for the cold check-out of the LHC, an important phase in the commissioning that follows the hardware tests and is a prerequisite for injecting beam into the machine. During this phase, all safety and interlock systems are activated
