The ATLAS Pixel Project
نویسنده
چکیده
The ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider will incorporate discrete, high-resolution tracking sub-systems in the form of segmented silicon detectors with 40MHz radiation-hard readout electronics. In the region closest to the pp interaction point, the thin silicon tiles will be segmented into a pixel geometry providing two-dimensional space-point information. The current status of the ATLAS pixel project will be presented with an emphasis on the performance of the front-end electronics and prototype sensors.

The ATLAS Insertable B-Layer: from construction to operation
The ATLAS Insertable B-Layer (IBL) is a fourth layer of pixel detectors, and has been installed in May 2014 at a radius of 3.3 cm from the beam axis and between the existing Pixel detector and a new smaller radius beam-pipe. The new detector, built to cope with high radiation and occupancy, is the first large scale application of 3D detectors and CMOS 130 nm technology. The IBL detector constru...
متن کاملATLAS IBL: a challenging first step for ATLAS Upgrade at the sLHC
With the LHC collecting data at 7 TeV, plans are already advancing for a series of upgrades leading eventually to about five times the LHC design luminosity some 10 years from now in the High Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) project. The upgrades for ATLAS detector will be staged in preparation for HL-LHC. The first upgrade for the Pixel Detector will be the construction of a new pixel layer, which will...
متن کاملRecent results of the ATLAS upgrade planar pixel sensors R&D project
To extend the physics reach of the LHC experiments, several upgrades to the accelerator complex are planned, culminating in the HL-LHC, which eventually leads to an increase of the peak luminosity by a factor of five to ten compared to the LHC design value. To cope with the higher occupancy and radiation damage also the LHC experiments will be upgraded. The ATLAS Planar Pixel Sensor R&D Project...
متن کاملDesign and Prototype Performance of the ATLAS Pixel Detector
The ATLAS experiment at the LHC will have three barrel and two times ve disk layers of silicon pixel detectors as the innermost elements of the Inner Tracking Detector. The detector is built adopting the hybrid pixel technology in which 16 highly performant FE chips are connected to a silicon sensor by means of the bump and ip-chip technique. Owing to the high bunch crossing rate of 40 MHz at t...

In this work we present our experience from the first year of theSkyNet Pan-STARRS1 Optical Galaxy Survey (POGS) project. This citizen-scientist driven research project uses the Berkeley Open Infrastructure for Network Computing (BOINC) middleware and thousands of Internet-connected computers to measure the resolved galactic structural properties of ∼100,000 low redshift galaxies. We are combin...
