| Re: Large Hadron Collider - When does it get activated? It isn't a case of just switching it on, it is powered up in stages. Tested, tweeked, tested some more, more power added, tested.... You get the idea |

See slides 3 & 17: http://indico.cern.ch/getFile.py/acc...s&confId=33898 BTW - I took advantage of my LHC access privileges last week, and have some videos of what it's like down there at the moment. I'll put them on the web shortly |
