MOXGB3	LHC Commissioning at Higher Energy	6
	P. Collier, F. Bordry, J. Wenninger CERN, Geneva, Switzerland
	The LHC has just come to the end of its first Long Shutdown (LS1) and preparations are underway to prepare for Run 2 data taking at 13 TeV centre of mass energy. After briefly recalling the major work undertaken during the 2-year long LS1, details will be given of the cool-down and hardware commissioning phase where each individual superconducting circuit is individually qualified for operation at nominal current. For the main dipole circuits this phase was completed with a quench training campaign in order to operate reliably at the required field. In parallel to the training campaign a rigorous cold checkout has been used to qualify the machine as an ensemble and to establish the conditions necessary for beam operation. The details of this phase will be given together with associated dry runs and beam injection tests. Finally, the latest news will be presented concerning the beam commissioning of the machine in preparation for first physics operation, which will hopefully begin in June.

The LHC has just come to the end of its first Long Shutdown (LS1) and preparations are underway to prepare for Run 2 data taking at 13 TeV centre of mass energy. After briefly recalling the major work undertaken during the 2-year long LS1, details will be given of the cool-down and hardware commissioning phase where each individual superconducting circuit is individually qualified for operation at nominal current. For the main dipole circuits this phase was completed with a quench training campaign in order to operate reliably at the required field. In parallel to the training campaign a rigorous cold checkout has been used to qualify the machine as an ensemble and to establish the conditions necessary for beam operation. The details of this phase will be given together with associated dry runs and beam injection tests. Finally, the latest news will be presented concerning the beam commissioning of the machine in preparation for first physics operation, which will hopefully begin in June.

FCC-ee is a proposed high-energy electron positron circular collider that would initially occupy the 100-km FCC tunnel that will eventually house the 100 TeV FCC-hh hadron collider. The parameter range for the e⁺/e⁻ collider is large, operating at a cm energy from 90 GeV (Z-pole) to 350 GeV (t-tbar production) with the maximum beam current ranging from 1.5 A to 6 mA for each beam, corresponding to a synchrotron radiation power of 50 MW and a radiative energy loss varying from ~30 MeV/turn to ~7500 MeV/turn. This presents challenges for the rf system due to the varying rf voltage requirements and beam loading conditions. In this paper we present a possible gradual evolution of the FCC-ee complex by step-wise expansion, and possibly reconfiguration, of the superconducting RF system. The performance attainable at each step is discussed, along with the possible advantages and drawbacks.
