Description
The High Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC) project is an upgrade of the LHC to enable continuous operation at instantaneous luminosities over double that of the current LHC value. To do so, nearly 1.2 km of accelerator components of the present LHC machine will be replaced, applying new, innovative technologies. This includes a Full Remote Alignment System (FRAS) to continuously and accurately monitor the position of components and to perform remote adjustment. This paper will present the alignment solutions currently being finalized and their qualification plan. It will then review the alignment strategy, from the dismantling of old elements to the first years of operation of FRAS using the newly installed components.
