ATLAS  · 

The DESY-ATLAS Group

We work at the ATLAS experiment running at the 27km circumference Large hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN . We are split over both DESY sites, Hamburg an Zeuthen.

Our group is involved in different activities within the experiment:

Physics analysis

Properties of the Higgs boson

• DESY/ATLAS Higgs group

Physics of top quarks with special emphasis on the ttH coupling

• DESY/ATLAS top group

Standard Model studies

• DESY/ATLAS SM group
• YIG of Lydia Beresford: The LHC as a photon collider

Search for physics beyond the Standard Model

• DESY/ATLAS BSM group
• YIG of Priscilla Pani: On Top of Dark Matter

Operation of the ATLAS detector

Performance of ATLAS

• Reconstruction of tracks
• Electrons and Photons
• Identification of b-jets

Measurement of the ATLAS luminosity

Monte Carlo generator tuning and interfacing generators with ATLAS software

Operations of the semi-conductor tracker (SCT)

Upgrade of the ATLAS detector

The silicon strip tracker upgrade for the High-Luminosity LHC
