Abstract
The LHC machine that started operating last September will break into a completely new energy domain
once it produces first collisions at 10-14 TeV. This opens possibility for surprises even with small data sets
to be collected next year. We discuss various searches for new physics with the focus on the CMS experiment
and early LHC data. The delay with the LHC commissioning due to the recent incident, which prevented us
from seeing first collisions this year presents new challenges for the collaborations, namely commissioning
of the detector simultaneously with searches for new physics. We discuss this challenge and strategies for
searches with early data.
