ATLAS Atlas SCT MPI module at MPI


Wir suchen Diplomanden und Doktoranden (Diploma and Phd students) zur Mitarbeit. Wenn Sie Interesse haben melden Sie sich bitte bei Richard Nisius.


Since 1996 the Max-Planck-Institut für Physik (Werner-Heisenberg-Institut) in München is participating in the world wide effort to build the SemiConductor Tracker (SCT) for the inner detector of ATLAS.

The MPI group has made major contributions to the SCT hardware in the fields of Module Design, Component Procurement, Endcap Module Construction, and Endcap Integration and Test at CERN. In addition we are engaged in software projects like the Detector Alignment based on charged particle tracks and the preparation of Top-quark Physics Analysis.

Some details of the various activities, together with some presentations and publications of the group, can be found following the links below.
