20. Status of the ATLAS Pixel Detector

Jean-Francois Arguin (LBL (Berkeley))

05/09/2007, 14:15

Oral

The ATLAS silicon pixel detector is nearing completion for operation at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN. The ATLAS pixel detector contains approximately 80 million channels and 1744 detector modules. Electronics and module fabrication and testing is complete, as well as system integration of major elements of the pixel detector. The overall status of the ATLAS pixel detector will...

67. SCT Commissioning

Maiike Limper (NIKHEF)

05/09/2007, 14:40

Oral

The Barrel and EndCap SCT detectors are installed in the ATLAS cavern. This talk will focus on the installation and first tests of the SCT in-situ. The thermal, electrical and optical services will be reviewed and some of the problems that were encountered during installation will be discussed. The first tests of the SCT in-situ will be described using the calibration scans.. The performance...

66. SCT and TRT Performance from Cosmic Ray Runs

Dr Heidi Sandaker (CERN)

05/09/2007, 15:05

Oral

The Barrel and Endcap SCT detectors have been integrated into the barrel and Endcap TRT detectors. There have been cosmic ray runs for the Barrel and Endcaps in the surface building (SR1) and after installation in the ATLAS cavern. This talk will focus on the most recent results. The procedure for timing in the SCT and TRT for Cosmic runs will be described as well as the procedures to ensure...

35. System Design of the ATLAS Absolute Luminosity Monitor

Georges Blanchot (CERN)

05/09/2007, 15:30

Oral

The ATLAS absolute luminosity monitor is composed of 8 roman pots symmetrically located in the LHC tunnel. Each pot contains 23 multi anode photomultiplier tubes, and each one of those is fitted with a front-end assembly called PMF. A PMF provides the high voltage biasing of the tube, the front-end chip and the local readout controller in a very compact arrangement. The 23 PMFs...
