ATLAS Transition Radiation Tracker (TRT): Straw Tubes for Tracking and Particle Identification at the Large Hadron Collider
The ATLAS Transition Radiation Tracker (TRT) is the outermost of the three inner detector tracking subsystems and consists of ∼300000 thin-walled drift tubes (“straw tubes”) that are 4 mm in diameter. The TRT system provides ∼30 space points with ∼130 micron resolution for charged tracks with |η| < 2 and pT > 0.5 GeV/c. The TRT also provides electron identification capability by detecting trans...
متن کاملHigh Rate Photon Irradiation Test of an 8-Plane ATLAS Transition Radiation Tracker Sector Prototype
In this document we report the results from a high rate photon irradiation test of an ATLAS Transition Radiation Tracker 8-plane endcap sector prototype with 192 straws instrumented with near to final front-end electronics. Data was taken at the CERN X5 Gamma Irradiation Facility with a Cs photon source, and at the Weizmann Institute irradiation facility in Israel with a Gammabeam 150 Co source...
متن کاملParticle Swarm Optimization Based Parameter Identification Applied to a Target Tracker Robot with Flexible Joint
This paper focuses on parameter identification of a target tracker robot possessing flexible joints using particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm. Since, belt and pulley mechanisms are known as flexible joints in robotic systems, their elastic behavior affecting a tracker robot is investigated in this work. First, dynamic equations governing the robot behavior are extracted taking into acco...
متن کاملATLAS Transition Radiation Tracker test-beam results
Several prototypes of the Transition Radiation Tracker for the ATLAS experiment at the LHC have been built and tested at the CERN SPS accelerator. Results from detailed studies of the straw-tube hit registration efficiency and drifttime measurements and of the pion and electron spectra without and with radiators are presented. r 2004 Elsevier B.V.

متن کاملMechatronic Prototype of Parabolic Solar Tracker
In the last 30 years numerous attempts have been made to improve the efficiency of the parabolic collectors in the electric power production, although most of the studies have focused on the industrial production of thermoelectric power. This research focuses on the application of this concentrating solar thermal power in the unexplored field of building construction. To that end, a mechatronic...
