Abstract

The Transfer Lines for both rings of the LHC were successfully recommissioned with beam in preparation for the start-up of Run 2. This paper presents an overview of the Transfer Line and Sector Tests performed to bring the LHC back into operation after a two-year period of shut-down for consolidation and upgrade. The tests enabled debugging of critical software and hardware systems and validated changes made to the transfer and injection systems. The beam-based measurements carried out to validate the optics and machine configuration are summarised along with the hardware systems.
