Expected Performance of the ATLAS Experiment - Detector, Trigger and Physics (2008)
Abat, E., Abbott, B., Abdallah, J., Abdelalim, A. A., Abdesselam, A., ...
A detailed study is presented of the expected performance of the ATLAS detector. The reconstruction of tracks, leptons, photons, missing energy and jets is investigated, together with the performance...
Alignment of the Pixel and SCT Modules for the 2004 ATLAS Combined Test Beam (2008)
Ahmad, A., Andreazza, A., Atkinson, T., Baines, J., Barr, A. J., Beccherle, R., ...
A small set of final prototypes of the ATLAS Inner Detector silicon tracker (Pixel and SCT) were used to take data during the 2004 Combined Test Beam. Data were collected from runs with beams of...

nalog of beamstrahlung to be studied. Measurement of the invariant-mass spectrum of electron-positron pairs could clarify whether the positron peaks seen at Darmstadt in heavy-ion collisions are a...
A liquid xenon ionization chamber in an all-fluoropolymer vessel (2006)
LePort, EXO Collaboration: F., Pocar, A., Bartoszek, L., DeVoe, R., Fierlinger, P., Flatt, B., ...
A novel technique has been developed to build vessels for liquid xenon ionization detectors entirely out of ultra-clean fluoropolymer. We describe the advantages in terms of low radioactivity...
Mobility of thorium ions in liquid xenon (2005)
Wamba, K., Hall, C., Breidenbach, M., Conley, R., Odian, A., Prescott, C. Y., ...
We present a measurement of the $^{226}$Th ion mobility in LXe at 163.0 K and 0.9 bar. The result obtained, 0.240$\pm$0.011 (stat) $\pm$0.011 (syst) cm$^{2}$/(kV-s), is compared with a popular model...
Correlated Fluctuations between Luminescence and Ionization in Liquid Xenon (2003)
Conti, E., DeVoe, R., Gratta, G., Koffas, T., Waldman, S., Wodin, J., ...
The ionization of liquefied noble gases by radiation is known to be accompanied by fluctuations much larger than predicted by Poisson statistics. We have studied the fluctuations of both...
Positron production in multiphoton light-by-light scattering (1997)
Bula, C, Bamber, C, Berridge, S C, Böge, S J, Bugg, W M, Bula, C, ...
C. Bula, K. T. Mcdonald, E. J. Prebys, D. Strozzi, C. Bamber, S. Boege, ...
We propose a program of study of the interaction of electrons and photons in fields approaching the critical QED field strength of an electron rest energy per Compton wavelength. This can be achieved...
