CMS is now running with 1236 bunches of protons !
This year's LHC physics run started in March. Since then the machine has broken many records, bringing its luminosity — the number of proton-proton collisions per second — to much higher levels than expected for this year. CMS now can take as much…
Only TOB was turned ON today after LHC Opearation declared stable beams for a while. Below is a 900 GeV p-p collision event seen by the TOB in Run 122314, Evt 8605569.
