The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) Long Shutdown 2 (2019–2021), following LHC Run 2, was primarily dedicated to the upgrade of the LHC Injectors but it included also a signiﬁcant amount of activities aimed at consolidation of the LHC machine components, removal of known limitations and initial upgrades in view of the High-Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) to favour the intensity ramp-up during Run 3 (2022–2025). An overview of the major modifications to the accelerator and its systems is followed by a summary of the results of the superconducting magnet training campaign to increase the LHC operation energy beyond the maximum value of 6.5 TeV reached during Run 2. The LHC configuration and the scenarios for proton and ion operation for Run 3 are presented considering the expected performance of the upgraded LHC Injectors and the proton beam intensity limitations resulting from the heat load on the cryogenic system due to beam-induced electron cloud and impedance.

“…The present official schedule of the LHC foresees a continuation of the heavy-ion program throughout Run 3, scheduled to take place in 2022-2025, and Run 4, presently planned for 2029-2032, with mainly one-month runs of Pb-Pb or p-Pb collisions per year. A detailed baseline operational scenario has been worked out [68], relying on an improved production scheme in the injectors that allows reducing the bunch spacing to 50 ns from the previously used 75 ns [69], as well as upgrades of the collimation system [70,71]. A range of LHC filling patterns has been worked out, with different distributions of the collisions between, on the one hand, the ALICE, ATLAS, and CMS experiments, and on the other, the LHCb experiment [68].…”

Opportunities for searches for phenomena beyond the Standard Model (BSM) using heavy-ions beams at high energies are outlined. Different BSM searches proposed in the last years in collisions of heavy ions, mostly at the Large Hadron Collider, are summarized. A few concrete selected cases are reviewed including searches for axion-like particles, anomalous $\tau$ electromagnetic moments, magnetic monopoles, and dark photons. Expectations for the achievable sensitivities of these searches in the coming years are given. Studies of CP violation in hot and dense QCD matter and connections to ultrahigh-energy cosmic rays physics are also mentioned.
