On 19 May, the LHC reached 1200 bunches per beam, a level that is considered meaningful for physics. The full intensity of 2460 bunches per beam could be achieved before the end of the week

The first beams are already circulating in the Linac4 and PS Booster and should reach the LHC on 11 March. A new physics run is about to begin!

In about a week, lead ions will be sent from the SPS into the LHC to collide in the accelerator’s four big experiments

Accelerator team declares "stable beams" as lead ions collide with protons in first LHC physics beams of 2013
