“…Performance of the Linac was close to the design values [6, 7, 8 and references therein] as can be seen from As was well known from the very first discussions and presented already [1], the vacuum pressure is a very critical issue in the Booster synchrotron. A general cleaning and replacement of equipment with a very high outgassing rate had been executed [9] together with the installation of additional pumping capacity (Ti sublimation pumps). Unfortunately, several leaks occurred last year causing pressure bumps in two places.…”

CERN's Lead Ion Accelerating Facility has been operating successfully for its first physics run. The facility, supported financially by some member states and designed, built and installed in a collaboration with several other laboratories (not only from member states), features a completely new linac and a major upgrade of the existing CERN machines. This paper reviews the design philosophy and discusses the present performance and the first operating experience.
