Abstract

After nearly two decades of design, construction and commissioning, the CMS detector was operated with colliding LHC proton beams for the first time in November and December 2009. Collision data was recorded at centre-of-mass energies of 0.9 and 2.36TeV, and analyzed with a fast turn-around time by the CMS Collaboration. In this talk I will review the commissioning condition at the start of the proton collision operation and a selection of commisioning results from the collision analysis. The proposed results show an excellent performance of the CMS detector and a very good agreement with the expectations from simulation for a hadron collider detector at start-up. The results are thus very encouraging for the start of the 7TeV physics run.
