Muon Detection & Measurement @ SLHC

This workshop in 2003 discussed critical issues in muon detection and measurement for SLHC experiments such as rate demand, occupancy, trigger PT resolution, stability, and technological advancements in chambers and electronics. Various types of gaseous detectors like DTs, CSCs, and RPCs were explored for their precision tracking capabilities in both the ATLAS and CMS systems. The event highlighted the challenges in tracking technologies, neutron and photon flux effects, rate handling, trigger resolutions, and advancements in thin gap chambers like TGCs.
