High precision mechanical supports Periscopes Optics Control and DAS Optic (2D CMOS), CCD Position (proximity sensors: potentiometric and optical) Tilt Temperature (PT 100) Must establish relative coordinates between the inner detector at CMS (Tracker) and the muon detectors in the Barrel and End Cap Detectors are inter-connected via laser beams. Beams define six - planes, one each 60. Detector positions are related through these planes

The Superconductivity group started in 1989 and their activities include magnets for particle accelerators, kinetic energy storage, and superconductivity technology research. In addition Ciemat has launched a special program to extend these activities to other fields of accelerator

A group of people is training at CERN who are contributing to LHC commissioning.
