  1. 45. New developments in gaseous detectors
    Maxim TITOV (Freiburg University)
    20/02/2007, 09:00
    Invited Talk
    Almost one century after its origin, and thirty years after the invention of the Multi-Wire Proportional Chamber, the field of gaseous detectors is far from being fully exploited. With the increasingly stringent constraints of modern experiments, particularly concerning high rate capability and radiation resistance, spatial resolution and homogeneity of large sensitive area...

  2. 28. First experience with the ATLAS Muon Spectrometer
    Joerg Dubbert (MP-Inst. f. Physik, Munich)

    Contributed Talk
    The ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN is currently being assembled to be ready to take first data in fall 2007. Its muon spectrometer is designed to achieve a momentum resolution of better than 10% at pμ = 1 TeV. The spectrometer consists of one barrel and two endcap superconducting air-core toroid magnets and is instrumented with three layers of Monitored...

  3. 38. First results of the CMS muon system using the 2006 cosmic runs of the magnet test
    Maria Chamizo Llatas (Cent.de Investigac.Energeticas Medioambientales y Tecnol. (CIEMAT))

    Contributed Talk
    During summer 2006 the solenoid magnet of CMS was tested for the first time at its nominal field of 4T with a slice of each sub-detector operational. The first results and lessons learned with the cosmic runs taken in this configuration will be presented here with emphasis in the muon system. The magnet test has provided a unique opportunity to demonstrate the combined operation of...

  4. 24. Commissioning of the ALICE TPC
    Ulrich Frankenfeld (GSI Darmstadt)

    Contributed Talk
    The Time Projection Chamber (TPC) is the main tracking detector of the heavy ion Experiment ALICE at the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The field gage manufactured of carbon fiber composites has a total volume of 95 m 3, the readout chambers instrument the two end-plates of the TPC cylinder with an overall active area of 32.5 m 2. The detector covers the pseudorapidity range |η| <...

  5. 30. RPC trigger counter cosmic ray tests in the ATLAS experiment
    Gabriele Chiodini (INFN Lecce)
    20/02/2007, 11:45
    Contributed Talk
    Extensive tests with cosmic rays have been performed with RPC trigger chambers installed in sector 13 of the ATLAS muon spectrometer. We illustrate the effort and report the results of this pre-commissioning phase, which rappresent a test bench to address the final commissioning of ATLAS RPC by cosmics rays. The tests done are mainly concentrated to establish a set of software and...

  6. 68. Ageing Phenomena in the LHCb Outer Tracker
    Tanja Haas (Phys. Institut Heidelberg)
    20/02/2007, 12:10
    Contributed Talk
    The LHCb experiment is a single arm spectrometer, designed to study CP violation in B-decays at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). It is crucial to accurately and efficiently detect the charged decay particles, in the high- density particle environment of the LHC. For this, the Outer Tracker (OT) is being constructed, consisting of ∼55,000 straw tubes, covering in total an area of 360 m...
