ATLAS is a general purpose particle physics experiment located on the LHC collider at CERN. The ATLAS Trigger system consists of two levels, the first level (L1) implemented in hardware and the High Level Trigger (HLT) implemented in software running on a computing cluster of commodity CPUs. The HLT reduces the trigger rate from the 100 kHz L1 accept rate to 1 kHz for recording, requiring an average...
With the first year of successful data taking of proton-proton collisions at LHC, the full chain of the ATLAS Trigger and Data Acquisition System could be tested under real conditions. The trigger monitoring and data quality infrastructure was essential to this success. We describe the software tools used to monitor the trigger system performance, assess the overall quality of the trigger selection...
The ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) will face the challenge of selecting interesting candidate events in proton-proton collisions at 14 TeV center of mass energy, while rejecting the enormous number of background events. The trigger system architecture is organized in three levels. From a bunch crossing rate of 40 MHz, the First Level trigger, hardware implemented, will reduce...
