Description

The Micromegas detectors are part of the New Small Wheel (NSW) system of the ATLAS experiment, the largest upgrade project of Phase-1. Together with sTGC detectors they provide trigger and tracking capability in the innermost station of the end-cap part of the Muon
spectrometer.
The Micromegas detector of ATLAS cover an active area of about 1280 m^2, has 1024 HV channels and 2.1 M readout channels, representing
the largest Micro-Pattern Gaseous Detector system ever built.
The two NSW have been installed in ATLAS in time for the start of Run3, went through a detailed commissioning phase during 2022 and are now
contributing to the ATLAS data taking.
In this presentation, after an introduction of the NSW, a series of latest
results regarding simulations, reconstruction, performance and first data
obtained with Run 3 will be reported.
