LHC update: June 5, 2009

From the CERN Bulletin issue dated Monday, June 8:

In Sector 3-4 the full length of the beam lines have been closed and work is currently ongoing to finish the final electrical interconnections. Once that is completed, work will start to close up the W bellows - the large accordion-shaped sleeves between two magnets - and preparations can start to cool the sector down.
