LHC portal

Actually that was the wrong link. I meant the http://cdsweb.cern.ch/record/1165534/files/CERN-Brochure-2009-003-Eng.pdf one at the bottom of that page. All the pictures are green with white text over the top = low contrast :-( The default pdf viewer on my Ubuntu 8.04 box was taking about 10 seconds ...

The 'beam status' flags had me confused yesterday. They were running beam 1, but the beam 2 'beam presence' flag kept coming on, while the beam 1 one stayed off.

stuff being tested, or wires crossed over?
