VERTEX2015: The 24th International Workshop on Vertex Detectors

Radiation damage monitoring of the ATLAS pixel detector

Not scheduled

20m

Santa Fe, NM, USA

Speaker

Sally Seidel (University of New Mexico (US))

Description

Radiation damage to the ATLAS pixel detector is measured continuously by a dedicated system for monitoring leakage current in a representative sample of the modules. Measurements for the full 2011-2012 run are presented and compared to predictions by a theoretical model. The data are used to infer the impact of the current upon the lifetime of the detector.
