EXPERIMENTAL SUMMARY: ENTERING THE LHC ERA<br />

The <strong>Moriond</strong> <strong>QCD</strong> <strong>2011</strong> Conference takes place in the transition period when the LHC is taking<br />

over from the previous generation of colli<strong>de</strong>rs (LEP, HERA, Tevatron, RHIC, B factories) for<br />

investigations at the high energy frontier, study of high <strong>de</strong>nsity matter <strong>and</strong> low energy precision<br />

measurements. This reflects in the high proportion of experimental talks (~ 40%) <strong>de</strong>voted to LHC<br />

results, a qualitatively new feature compared to previous <strong>Moriond</strong> editions. This experimental<br />

summary attempts to present the new results from LHC in comparison with those of other colli<strong>de</strong>rs,<br />

outlining the achieved precision <strong>and</strong> short term prospects.
