چکیده
The dependence of the rate of proton-proton interactions on the centre-of-mass collision energy, √s, is of fundamental importance for both hadron collider physics and particle astrophysics. The dependence cannot yet be calculated from first principles; therefore, experimental measurements are needed. Here we present the first measurement of the inelastic proton-proton interaction cross-section at a centre-of-mass energy, √s, of 7 TeV using the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. Events are selected by requiring hits on scintillation counters mounted in the forward region of the detector. An inelastic cross-section of 60.3 ± 2.1 mb is measured for ξ > 5×10⁻⁶, where ξ is calculated from the invariant mass, M(X), of hadrons selected using the largest rapidity gap in the event. For diffractive events, this corresponds to requiring at least one of the dissociation masses to be larger than 15.7 GeV.

Soft Qcd with the Atlas Detector at the Lhc
Abstract. Soft QCD measurements using proton-proton collisions at √ s = 900 GeV and 7 TeV recorded with the ATLAS detector at the LHC are presented. Charged particle distributions were measured using tracks reconstructed in the ATLAS inner detector. Activity in the underlying event was studied using independent measurements from tracking detectors and calorimeters. Two-particle angular correlat...

A measurement of the inelastic proton-proton cross-section at centre-of-mass energy of √ s= 7TeV using the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider is presented. Events are selected by requiring hits in scintillator counters mounted in the forward region of the ATLAS detector and the dataset corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 20μb−1. In addition, the total cross-section is studied ...
متن کاملDiffraction results from the ATLAS experiment
First studies dealing with diffraction processes published by the ATLAS collaboration are discussed. Two analyses are reviewed, both relying on data from proton-proton collisions at √ s = 7 TeV from a part of data taking in 2010 where the effect of pile-up background was negligible. One analysis reports on a measurement of the rapidity gap distribution compared with diffractive and hadronizatio...

متن کاملMeasurement of W and Z production at √s= 7 TeV with the ATLAS detector
In spring 2010, the LHC has delivered its first proton-proton collisions at a centre of mass of 7 TeV. The validation of the detector performance started with the measurement of some Standard Model well known processes. This paper presents the measurement of the W and Z cross section in electron and muon final states, which constitute the first sample of isolated high transverse momentum lepton...

The exclusive production of charged pions, are reported in the proton-proton collisions, where the π+π- pair is emitted at the central rapidity, y, and the scattered protons stay intact (p) without detection. This measurement is performed with the CMS detector at the LHC, using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 450 μb-1 collected at a center-of-mass energy of 7 TeV. Th...
