Description

The most important ATLAS upgrade for LHC run-3 has been in the Muon Spectrometer, where the replacement of the two forward inner stations with the New Small Wheels (NSW) introduced two novel detector technologies: the small-strip Thin Gap Chambers (sTGC) and the resistive strips Micromegas (MM). The integration of the two NSW in the ATLAS endcaps marks the culmination of an extensive construction, testing, and installation program. The NSW actively contributes to the muon spectrometer trigger and tracking, during the concurrent finalization of the commissioning phase of this innovative system and the optimization of its performances. This presentation will offer a detailed report on the studies on the NSW system, based on the LHC run-3 dataset collected from 2022 to 2024. The report will cover the performance of the two novel detector technologies, as well as the muon trigger and reconstruction performance in the ATLAS endcaps.

Dear Conference Committee,
Please be aware that the presenters will be chosen by the Muon SC in consultation with the Muon management and relevant system experts. We will communicate the name of the speaker as soon as possible.

Thanks a lot for your time and help.

Best regards,
Francesco Fallavollita for the Muon Speaker Comm.
