A Toroidal Lhc Apparatus
ATLAS (
A Toroidal LHC ApparatuS
) is one of the two large detector experiments being constructed at the
Large Hadron Collider
at
CERN
in
Switzerland
. The construction is scheduled to be completed in
2007
. It will investigate several aspects and extensions of the
Standard Model
:
The
Higgs mechanism
, which gives masses to all elementary particles and demands the existence of a particle called the
Higgs boson
CP-violation
, which explains the origin of matter/antimatter asymmetry
Decays of the
top quark
and more precise determination of its mass
and test two important predictions of
Supersymmetry
The existence of more than one
Higgs boson
Many other new particles at an accessible energy
Components
The ATLAS detector consists of four parts:
Inner Detector
pixel detector
,
silicon microstrip detector
,
transition radiation
straw detector
Calorimeter
electromagnetic calorimeter
,
hadronic calorimeter
Muon spectrometer
Resistive plate chambers, monitored drift tube chambers, cathode strip chambers, thin gap chambers
Magnet System
