ATLAS - Accelerator based particle physics
The ATLAS experiment is running att CERNs largest accelerator - the Large Hadron Collider, LHC. We are engaged in the construction and operation of two parts of the detector - readout electronics for the hadron calorimeter and the first level calorimeter trigger.
We are analysing data for three specific studies: measurement of the top-quark production cross -section, search for metastable particles and search for Supersymmetry or other phenomena beyond the standard model.
