Speaker
Description
The ATLAS SemiConductor Tracker (SCT) had been maintained during the
long shutdown 2 (LS2) and restarted operations in LHC Run-3. As reported in
the previous VERTEX conference, the SCT successfully operated in LHC Run-2
(2015-2018) which came with high instantaneous luminosity and pileup
conditions that were far in excess of what the SCT was originally designed to
meet. The first significant effects of radiation damage in the SCT were also
observed during Run-2. The operation condition of SCT from LHC Run-3 is
expected to be the same as those in Run-2. This talk will summarise the
operational experience and performance of the SCT during Run-2 and LS2, and
the first impression from Run3 operations. Also the observation and prospect
of the radiation damage on SCT silicon strip sensors will be presented.
