LS1 Collaboration Seminar

2014-11-27 LS1 Collaboration Seminar

To support management to supervise and coordinate the work of the Alfa-Omega team, i.e.:

- to ensure safety and develop technical trainings, grant access rights to the LHC sites for all team members,

- coordination of weekly and daily activities for all teams,

- technical supervision and problems analysis. Technical link with others sections/groups when necessary, logistic issues…

- following up activities and exchange information with other SMACC teams to identify issues which might have impact to Alfa-Omega work,

- editing of all technical procedures related to A&O activities,

but also:

- follow-up of teams integration, leading the members to become familiar with the environment. In addition, solving every-day problems; helping to get more familiar with CERN, thanks to visits in ATLAS, CMS, ALICE, LHCb...

In general: to lead all Alfa-Omega team responsibles to organize work of the team respecting the schedule but with priority given to safety and quality.

Thermal Screens UpgradeIn the dedicated workshop in Bld.183 ~1900 thermal screens sets were upgraded (a clamp installed instead of the welded lyra; hinge, aluminum bride and snap fasteners were added between the upper and lower shield)

M-bellows Protections Consolidation

~5000 pcs of M-bellows protections were modified in Workshop (SMI2)

~100 pcs considered as radioactive – modified in Workshop Bld.109

~40800 inserts installed!

In the tunnel ~8500 holes were punched in the cryostat’s thermal screens to prepare the installation

of upgraded shields.
