ALICE would like to have a dedicated pp run at √s= 5.5 TeV ALICE would like to have a dedicated pp run at √s= 5.5 TeV (nucleon-nucleon √s for nominal Pb-Pb runs) for a direct (nucleon-nucleon √s for nominal Pb-Pb runs) for a direct comparison of the Pb-Pb and pp data. A lower energy Pb-Pb comparison of the Pb-Pb and pp data. A lower energy Pb-Pb run may be requested too. However both requests are for a run may be requested too. However both requests are for a later stage of the LHC operationlater stage of the LHC operation
Lower energy pp runs during early running are also discussedLower energy pp runs during early running are also discussed
Low energy runs are currently neither in the ATLAS nor in the Low energy runs are currently neither in the ATLAS nor in the CMS baseline physics program.

140 days for physics per yearNot forgetting ion and TOTEM operation
Leaves ~ 100 days for proton luminosity running? Efficiency for physics 40% ?
40 days ~ 1000 h ~ 4 106 s of colliding beams / year
