360 Degree Panoramic Photographs During the Long Shutdown 2 of the CERN Machines and Facilities
/ Birtwistle, Thomas (CERN) ; Ansel, Antoine (CERN) ; Bartolomé Jiménez, Sonia (CERN) ; Feral, Bruno (CERN) ; Lacerda, Gil (CERN) ; Perrot, Anne-Laure (CERN) ; Piñera Ovejero, Juan F (CERN)
Studies and preparation of activities are key to the success of short technical stops and longer shutdowns in CERN’s accelerator complex. The ’Panorama’ tool offers a virtual tour of our facilities, and thanks to integration with other CERN tools, further complementary information can be easily retrieved, including layout information, equipment detail, and a history of changes.

CERN Accelerators Topology Configuration: Facing the Next Long Shutdown
/ Bartolome-Jimenez, Sonia (CERN) ; Birtwistle, Thomas (CERN) ; Chemli, Samy (CERN) ; Gilbert, Nicolas (CERN) ; Perrot, Anne-Laure (CERN) ; Piar, Juraj (CERN) ; Simetka, Vojtech (CERN) ; Vazquez de Prada Planas, Blanca (CERN)
The Configuration and Layout (CL) team at CERN ensures that there is a clear and coherent representation of the status of the CERN underground facilities (about 60 km of equipment) and main accelerator projects at a given point in time. In view of the major equipment changes to be carried out during the extended end of year technical stop (EYETS), the next Long Shutdown (LS2), and to facilitate the associated preparatory work of multiple CERN groups, the CL team has developed an immersive visualisation tool, displaying 360 degree panoramic images of CERN underground facilities.

Integration, Configuration and Coordination: from Project to Reality, at CERN
/ Barberan Marin, Maria (CERN) ; Bartolome-Jimenez, Sonia (CERN) ; Bernardini, Marzia (CERN) ; Birtwistle, Thomas (CERN) ; Chemli, Samy (CERN) ; Corso, Jean-Pierre (CERN) ; Coupard, Julie (CERN) ; Foraz, Katy (CERN) ; Grillot, Serge (CERN) ; Muttoni, Yvon (CERN) et al.
The rigorous process in place at CERN to approve and follow-up the implementation of any modification of the LHC machine and its Injectors is presented in this paper. Our methodology implies the support of three teams, in charge of the configuration management, the scheduling and safety coordination, and the 3D integration studies. [...]

The LHC and its Injectors are submitted to an overall lifecycle of three to four years of physics delivery to Experiments with a two-year long stop, also known as Long Shutdown (LS). The years of physics delivery are ended by a programmed stop for the immediate preventive and corrective maintenance, also known as (Extended)-Year-End Technical Stop - (E)YETS. [...]

The CERN LHC injector chain underwent a major upgrade during the Long Shutdown 2 (LS2) in the framework of the LHC Injectors Upgrade (LIU) project. After 2 years of installation work, the Proton Synchrotron (PS) was restarted in 2021 with the goal to achieve pre-LS2 beam quality by the end of 2021. [...]
