  1. Activities of IEAPfor ATLAS Upgrade Karel Smolek Czech Technical University in Prague Institute of Experimental and Applied Physics

  2. Activities of IEAP in the ATLAS experiment • Institute of Experimental and Applied Physics (IEAP) is the research institute of the Czech Technical University in Prague. • 26 physicists and 2 technicians from the IEAP are involved in the ATLAS experiment. • 13 physicists are registered as ATLAS authors. MPX03 - Close to HEC electronics • Our fields of activities: • SCT FWD – construction, testing • ATLAS-MPX/TPX detector system • Radiation background measurement • Luminosity measurement • Data analyzing • From ATLAS-MPX/TPX • “Complex” ATLAS data – taul leptons, ttH (H→ττ) • Study of physics, possibly observable in the ATLAS experiment • Effects of KK gluons, top quark physics,…

  3. What we can offer • Know-how of pixel and strip detectors • Development of read-out electronics • Tests of the electronics • Tests of detection properties • Clean rooms • Used for SCT tests during the ATLAS construction

  4. What we can offer • Manual wirebonding machine • Fast osciloscopes, all necessary equipments for digital as well as analog testing (coincidence/anticoincidence, ADCs, fast scintillators,…). • Sources of radiation for detector testing • X-ray; • Alpha, beta particles (source of electrons with controlled energy); • Radionuclide neutron sources (thermal as well as fast neutrons).

  5. What we can offer • Van de Graaff accelerator • p, d, α, 3He; • Monochromatic neutrons (~100 keV up to 17 MeV).

  6. What we can offer • Available access to harsh γ, n radiation fields (microtron), well defined beams of slow and fast neutrons (collaborating partners). • Reference sources for absolute detection efficiency calibration for x, γ, n. • Manpower for Inner detector upgrade • Assembling and other mechanical works, experiments, administrative works; • 8 employees + 1-2 new students, each ~20% FT capacity. • Experimental tests • Prepared by our employees, with our sources of ionizing particles and Van de Graaff accelerator.
