ATLAS Activities

ATLAS Collaboration Website :: ATLAS Public Website

The Melbourne EPP group is an active member of the ATLAS Semiconductor Tracker (SCT) collaboration, with special interests in silicon module development, production and testing.

We are also involved in a range of simulation, reconstruction and analysis studies at ATLAS. For information about possible analysis topics contact Geoff Taylor or Elisabetta Barberio. Details current studies can be found on the Group Members or Student Projects page at left.

- a PET (Positron Emission Tomography) image of a human brain;
- tracks left by charged particles as they traverse a bubble chamber;
- and the creation of the Higgs (by the LHC), and decay to a τ+ τ- pair.
