The current measurement system probes directly the leakage current
in pixel sensors. The system is integrated with the ATLAS Pixel high
voltage delivery system. The system runs as a monitor of a radiation
damage of the pixel sensors. The leakage current data collected for
the completed data taking period are analyzed. The recent status of
the sensor's radiation damage and a comparison...

The Silicon micro-strip tracker (SCT) of the ATLAS experiment at LHC has
been running for physics at 7 and 8 TeV over 3 years. The integrated
delivered luminosity to ATLAS is 29.5 fb-1 and the fluence at the inner
most SCT modules corresponds to about 5e12 1MeV-equivalent neutrons/cm**
2, the level below the type inversion. More than 99% of 4088 modules
areactive with very high...

The LHCb experiment is dedicated to searching for New Physics effects in the heavy flavour sector, precise measurements of CP violation and rare heavy meson decays. The LHCb VELO (VErtex LOcator) silicon micro-strip detector is the highest precision vertex detector at the LHC and is located at only 8 mm from the proton beams. Consequently the sensors receive a large and non uniform radiation...
