Recent studies have shown promising results for track finding in dense environments using Graph Neural Network (GNN)-based algorithms. These algorithms not only provide high track efficiency but also offer reasonable track resolutions. However, GNN-based track finding is computationally slow on CPUs, necessitating the use of coprocessors like GPUs to accelerate the inference time....
Hybrid pixel detectors like Timepix3 and Timepix4 detect individual pixels hit by particles. For further analysis, individual hits from such sensors need to be grouped into spatially and temporally coinciding groups called clusters. While state-of-the-art Timepix3 detectors generate up to 80 Mio hits per second, the next generation, Timepix4, will provide data rates of up to 640 Mio hits (data...
To prepare for the High Luminosity phase of the Large Hadron Collider at CERN (HL-LHC), the ATLAS experiment is replacing its innermost components with a full-silicon tracker (ITk), to improve the spatial resolution of the tracks measurements and increase the data readout rate. However, this upgrade alone will not be sufficient to cope with the tremendous increase of luminosity, and...
In view of the HL-LHC, the Phase-2 CMS upgrade will replace the entire trigger and data acquisition system. The detector readout electronics will be upgraded to allow a maximum L1 accept rate of 750 kHz, and a latency of 12.5 µs. The muon trigger is a multi-layer system that is designed to reconstruct muon stubs on each muon station and then to measure the momenta of the muon by correlating...
LHCb is optimised to study particles decaying a few millimetres from the primary vertex using tracks that traverse the length of the detector. Recently, extensive efforts have been undertaken to enable the study of long-lived particles decaying within the magnet region, up to 7.5 m from the interaction point. This approach presents several challenges, particularly when considering real-time...
Dense hadronic environments encountered, for example, in the core of high-transverse-momentum jets, present specific challenges for the reconstruction of charged-particle trajectories (tracks) in the ATLAS tracking detectors, as they are characterised by a high density of ionising particles. The charge clusters left by these particles in the silicon sensors are more likely to merge with...
The upcoming High Luminosity phase of the Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC) represents a steep increase in pileup rate ($\left\langle\mu \right\rangle = 200$) and computing resources for offline reconstruction of the ATLAS Inner Tracker (ITk), for which graph neural networks (GNNs) have been demonstrated as a promising solution. The GNN4ITk pipeline has successfully employed a GNN architecture...
The ATLAS Run3 will conclude as planned in late 2025 and will be followed by the so-called Long Shutdown 3. During this period all the activities exclusively dedicated to Run4 will converge on the closing of the prototyping development and in the start of the production and integration, to reach the data collection in 2029. These upgrades are principally led by the increase of the peak of...
The High-Luminosity LHC shall be able to provide a maximum peak luminosity of 5 × $10^{34}$ cm$^{−2}$s$^{−1}$, corresponding to an average of 140 simultaneous p-p interactions per bunch crossing (pile-up), at the start of Run 4, around 2028. The ATLAS experiment will go through major changes to adapt to the high-luminosity environment, in particular in the DAQ architecture and in the trigger...
