Entwicklung von Silizium-Mikrostreifen-Detektormodulen für den ATLAS Semiconductor Tracker
… und Myonkammern. Teil des Spurdetektors ist der Semiconductor Tracker (SCT), dessen Aufgabe es ist, Spurpunkte von geladenen Teilchen zu registrieren. Als Sensoren werden Silizium-Mikrostreifen-Detektoren eingesetzt die im zentralen ?Barrel?-Bereich in vier Lagen um den Kollisionspunkt angeordnet …

A Study of coherent noise in binary Read-Out Systems and its applications to the ATLAS SemiConductor Tracker end-Cap
… new physics. <br>The ATLAS Semi-Conductor Tracker (SCT) is positioned in between the other two tracking detectors (PIXEL and TRT). The SCT will provide precision tracking for charged particles using silicon micro-strip detectors. The perfomance of the SCT system mainly depends on two …

Sub-nanosecond Cherenkov photon detection for LHCb particle identification in high-occupancy conditions and semiconductor tracking for muon scattering tomography
… second part of this thesis, the first published semiconductor tracker for cosmic-ray muon scattering tomography is presented. The tracker uses silicon strip sensors from the ATLAS Semiconductor Tracker (SCT) with an 80μm pitch. A novel electronic readout system for the sensors is designed, based …

Jet physics at ATLAS
… commissioning issues associated with the ATLAS Semiconductor Tracker (SCT), including a review of `noisy' modules on the SCT Barrel (from May 2007) was carried out. In addition a tool for DCS monitoring within the online monitoring framework was developed and tested during the M5 and M6 …

The Development of the ATLAS SCT as a Luminometer and the Search for SUSY Decays with Compressed Mass Spectra
… break down at higher luminosities. If the ATLAS SemiConductor Tracker (SCT) can be employed as a luminometer using hit-counting algorithms, this issue may be mitigated. It is established here that the SCT can feasibly operate as a luminometer when recording two-or-more strip clusters with the …

New physics searches in the ZZ sector with the ATLAS experiment
… the Data Acquisition (DAQ) system of the ATLAS Semiconductor Tracker (SCT). These include the construction of a test system, involving a scaled-down version of the entire SCT readout chain. The test system was subsequently used to develop a number of new DAQ features, including a hardware-based …
