Open Questions Are really elementary the “elementary” particles? Why do they have these mass and charge values? Why so many forces? The Graviton exists? Are they other undiscovered particles in Nature? Why 3 generations? Why …… ? G. Stavropoulos
The Standard Model and Beyond • Today, the most successful theoretical model, explaining lots of experimentaldata. Predicted the existence of the W±, Z0 particles. • Predicts the existence of one more neutral particle, the Higgs. Experimental measurements confirm that Higgsshould have, if it exists, mass > 114 GeV • But, leaves a lot open questions • Why these particles masses? • Gravity? • If neutron have mass; • Beyond the Standard Model • GUTs • Supersymmetry • Strings • ……….

Physics studies withLHC All theories agree, that the systematic study of the physics phenomena in the energy range between 100 – 1000 GeV will answer many of our questions • Standard Model Physics - Higgs search • B-physics • Heavyquarks and leptons • QCD • Supersymmetry • Exotics • ……… G.

x y L θMS θ0 0 θMS Measurement of Charged Tracks L To measure a pT = 1 TeV track with 10% resolution in a magnetic field of L = 5 m and ∫Bdl = 3 Tm we should aim for a σ(χ) < 50μm detector resolution.A pT =20 GeV is measured with 0.2% accuracy in the same detector. B s ρ θ Multiple scattering contributes to themeasurement error. In a 3-layer aluminum detector, with 1 cm thicklayers, these error is calculated tobe ~0.8%. G. Stavropoulos
The ATLAS Muon Spectrometer RPC και TGC: Trigger the detector and measure the muons in the xy and Rz planes with an accuracy of several mm. CSC: Measure the muonsinRz with ~80 μm accuracy and in xy with several mm. Cover 2<|η|<2.7 MDT: Measure the muonsinRz with ~80 μm accuracy. Cover|η|<2 Three toroidal magnets create a magnetic field with: • Barrel:∫Bdl = 2 – 6 Tm • Endcaps:∫Bdl = 4 – 8 Tm G. Stavropoulos

Experimental verification of the detectors’ design characteristics A significant and very important part of the construction phase of a detector, is the experimentalverification of its design and construction characteristics. Several measurements have already been performed (or they currently happen) in cosmic andtest-beam setups, which confirm that the detector under construction will be able to deliver thequality measurements as it is requested by the ATLAS Physics program. The design characteristics that have already been experimentally verified: • Track reconstruction efficiency. • Spatial resolution • Efficiency and timing of the trigger chambers • Detector performance in high event rates. • Alignment system.

Status of MDT Production • Over 95% of the MDT chambers have been produced. • Over 85% are equipped with gas manifold and Faraday cages. • 52% of the MDT’s already at CERN. • 40% fully tested with cosmics (partly at the home institutions) as individual chambers. • 10% of the RPC/MDT stations have past the qualification tests.
