Critical role of group for timely first physics publication on MinBias Physics (Phys.Lett B 688 1 (2010) 21 Technical : Understanding tracking, vertexing, detector material with data and iterating the MC for ATLAS inner detector Quick processing/re-processing data and MC (P. Behera: Data Prep Coordinator, QCD) Tracking and vertexing (M. Limper: central role, now PROC for ATLAS) Defining and coding Data Summary files (D3PD : R. Zaidan, expert on call for S.M. ) Analysis : Cross checks and systematics by R. Zaidanon Vertexing and correction matrices for unfolding Overall Cross checks by P. Behera Abstract submitted to CHEP 2010 by Zaidan on D3PD production for ATLAS SM For 7 TeV data (publication expected in August): Behera, Limper and Zaidan, centrally involved Behera, Zaidanadditionally responsible for independent second analysis including systematics Limper responsible for inclusion of tracks down to 100 MeVpT (previously 500 MeV) Behera also involved in testing KNO scaling and multiparticle correlations from the 900 Gev and 7 TeVdata sets (expected publication: end of 2010) Job responsibilities: Limper : Pixel Database continuing ; Prompt Recon Coordinator (PROC) for ATLAS from June 1, 2010 Zaidan: D3PD expert on call from Nov 2009 Behera: Data Preparation coordinator (QCD group) from Oct, 2009, US-ATLAS liaison for QCD
