Abstract:

The ATLAS (A Toroidal LHC ApparatuS) Inner Detector provides charged particle tracking in the centre of the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The Inner Detector consists of three subdetectors: the Pixel Detector, the Semiconductor Tracker (SCT), and the Transition Radiation Tracker (TRT). This paper summarizes the tests that were carried out at the final stage of SCT+TRT integration prior to their installation in ATLAS. The combined operation and performance of the SCT and TRT barrel and endcap detectors was investigated through a series of noise tests, and by recording the tracks of cosmic rays. This was a crucial test of hardware and software of the combined tracker detector systems. The results of noise and cross-talk tests on the SCT and TRT in their final assembled configuration, using final readout and supply hardware and software, are reported. The reconstruction and analysis of the recorded cosmic tracks allowed testing of the offline analysis chain and verification of basic tracker performance parameters, such as efficiency and spatial resolution, in combined operation before installation. © 2008 IOP Publishing Ltd. and SISSA.

BlackMax: A black-hole event generator with rotation, recoil, split branes and brane tension

ArXiv 0711.3012 (2007)

Authors:

De-Chang Dai, Glenn Starkman, Dejan Stojkovic, Cigdem Issever, Eram Rizvi, Jeff Tseng

Abstract:

We present a comprehensive black-hole event generator, BlackMax, which simulates the experimental signatures of microscopic and Planckian black-hole production and evolution at the LHC in the context of brane world models with low-scale quantum gravity. The generator is based on phenomenologically realistic models free of serious problems that plague low-scale gravity, thus offering more realistic predictions for hadron-hadron colliders. The generator includes all of the black-hole graybody factors known to date and incorporates the effects of black-hole rotation, splitting between the fermions, non-zero brane tension and black-hole recoil due to Hawking radiation (although not all simultaneously). The generator can be interfaced with Herwig and Pythia.

Radiation hardness studies of VCSELs and PINS for the opto-links of the Atlas SemiConductor Tracker

NUCL INSTRUM METH A 579:2 (2007) 795-800

Authors:

ML Chu, S Hou, T Huffman, C Issever, SC Lee, RS Lu, DS Su, PK Teng, AR Weidberg

Abstract:

We study the radiation hardness of the Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Laser diodes (VCSELs) and the epitaxial silicon PIN diodes that will be used for the Atlas SemiConductor Tracker at the CERN Large Hadron Collider. The tests were conducted with 200 MeV protons to a fluence of 4 x 10(14) p/cm(2) and with 20 MeV (average energy) neutrons to 7.7 x 10(14) n/cm(2). The radiation damage of the VCSELs and PINs and the annealing characteristics are presented. (c) 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
