Particles to LHC: We are back!
The weekend of October 23-25 marked the revival of the LHC. Once again, particles are inside the LHC, breaking its one-year hiatus as repairs were undertaken in relation to the incident of September 2008.
As of Friday, the LHC is cool. Three sets of ions were injected into the LHC's clockwise beam pipe starting Friday afternoon, accomplishing incomplete circulations as they were dumped at certain points in the machine. The results show that the LHC is in tip top shape.

Let us wait for the first circulating beam in the coming weeks!
