Book
The performance of LEP and future developments
Description
A description is given of the evolution of the performance of the LEP collider from the first injection in July 1989, through to the first collisions less than a month later and finally to the present. The major factors related to each significant improvement in performance are described, as well as the present day limitations to performance. In addition the time schedule and performance estimates for the planned upgrade in LEP energy to allow study of W pair production are reported. Finally the beam dynamics and technical issues associated with the proposed multi-bunch 'pretzel' and polarization schemes are addressed. (author) 12 refs.; 5 figs
