  3. IEFC Mandate • The LHC Injectors and Experimental Facilities Committee (IEFC) will be the executive committee concerned with all technical and performance aspects of the CERN accelerator complex apart from the LHC machine itself. This includes the accelerators themselves as well as all associated experimental areas and facilities. In addition to the beamline equipment the committee will address any issues concerning the infrastructure and technical services. • In particular it will: • Maintain the hardware baseline of the machines, together with the performance parameters of the beams delivered to the different users. • Closely monitor all activities concerning the installed equipment in the various facilities including shutdown, machine checkout and operation with beam. • Examine proposed changes to the equipment and associated controls and decide on all technical matters concerning the installations. • Examine and endorse the priorities for consolidation of the equipment and systems throughout the injector complex.

  4. IEFC Mandate, cont’d • Request and monitor studies concerning the operating performance of the machines. • Monitor, discuss and endorse the machine development studies for the different machines. Request specific studies when needed. • Follow progress with the LHC injector chain upgrade programme as concerns machine studies in the existing complex and technical matters concerning installations in and around the existing facilities. • Interact with the LHC Machine Committee in terms of the beam requirements LHC expects from its existing injector chain and in the specification of the beam parameters through the complex as part of the LHC upgrade. • To assist with this task a number of study groups, committees and coordination teams will be set up and report directly to the IEFC.   • There will also be interaction with other bodies such as the LMC (LHC Machine Committee), the BFSP (Beam Facilities Safety Panel), the TIOP (Technical Infrastructure Operations Committee) and the CO3 (Controls Coordination Committee).

  5. Discussion points • Safety matters – interaction with other bodies (BFSP, DSOC, …) ? • Representation of SC: RP permanent, and more … ? • Interaction with projects – various cases: • Follow-up in IEFC: e.g. consolidation of injector complex • As far as impinging on existing machines: e.g. new PSB injection (Linac4) • Only as far as common resources are used, infrastructure: e.g. CTF3 • … • Interaction with controls/CO3 ? • Follow-up and steering of technical matters, installation/shutdown preparation, … Technical proposals to be prepared outside IEFC. In WG ? EN-MEF reporting ?
