Welcome to the ATLAS web

These pages are intended for posting any information useful for physics analysis in ATLAS. Access is restricted to the Liverpool ATLAS group.

A new page is UNDER construction. This should include

• ATLAS Physics
  • Analysis topics followed by people in the group, roles and responsibilities within ATLAS
  • Recent publications from team members (relevant also for REF)
  • List of ATLAS PhD students and their thesis topic (and their most relevant presentations)
  • Institutional committment matters
  • Other service tasks followed by group members (e.g. Analysis Release, MC and PMG, Trigger, Tracking and more), especially if not (or not yet) part of the institutional commitments
• ATLAS Upgrade
  • Work in progress on Pixel and strip areas
  • Publications and presentations at conference or even ATLAS meetings
  • Contribution from upgrade on institutional commitments
• Computing @ ATLAS
  • status, info about status of the machines, CPU available and needs
  • Big data analysis

Meetings

• General Analysis Meetings
• Technical & Performance Meetings
• SCT Operations and Monitoring
• Z+b Meetings
