One of the challenges of the ATLAS missing transverse momentum trigger is understanding how the trigger rate will evolve with the number of proton collisions per bunch crossing, or pileup. In the past, the data have been fit to parametric functions and extrapolated to higher pileup values. In this poster, we present a new technique using machine learning regression models to describe the...
In Higgs portal models, it is predicted that the Higgs boson could decay into dark matter particles. We may be able to detect these processes with the ATLAS detector, located at the Large Hadron Collider in Geneva Switzerland. There are many different production modes of the Higgs boson that could be used in a search for these Higgs boson to invisible decays, and when used together they...
The most challenging ATLAS Phase I upgrade project during Long Shutdown 2 (2019-2021) is the New Small-Wheel (NSW) for Muon Spectrometer. The main purpose of the NSW upgrade is to improve the performance of muon triggering and precision tracking for the High-Luminosity Large-Hadron-Collider (HL-LHC), which will deliver 3,000 fb-1 of data at √s = 14 TeV. The NSW will feature two new detector...
The Monitored Drift Tube (MDT) provides precise tracking and momentum measurement in the ATLAS muon spectrometer. To accommodate higher event rates and provide better fake rejection in the High Luminosity LHC, a new integrated chamber with small-diameter MDT (sMDT) and thin Resistive Plate Chambers (tRPC) had been developed and will be installed into barrel inner layer of the muon detector for...
The ATLAS detector at the LHC is subject to millions of events per second. ATLAS employs a trigger system to select events of high importance for offline storage. To ensure the triggers are working as expected, we use a software tool called xMon, which has been in operation in the ATLAS control room for a decade. xMon works by predicting the trigger rate based on offline fits from previous...
