"A Quantum Diaries Survivor"
blog is an excerpt of the latest
LHC schedule for the following few months.
With the luminosity estimation there of 40 pb^{-1}, during 2008 run the physics results from
LHC should be:
- A top pair production cross section with 10-15% accuracy
- A sizable sample of vector boson decays to leptons, very useful for calibrations and checks of lepton efficiency studies
- The first estimates of b-tagging and tau-tagging capabilities of current algorithms
- no information on the Higgs
- no SUSY discovery (of course!)
