Description

The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN started end of 2009 to provide first proton-proton collisions. The full scientific exploitation of the LHC commenced in spring 2010 with first collisions at the new record energy of 7 TeV in the proton-proton system. This article reviews first results and the status of the accelerator and experiments in April 2010 together with prospects for the coming years. The rapid progress made since then is not reflected here.
