We took advantage of the low utilization of computers available at the university teaching and operated PCs at the classrooms in a dual operation mode. The computers either serve the students in standard local interactive mode or being embedded as a large CPU resource for parallel computation. The usage of these computers on their idle time within the GRID, significantly enhances the computing power...
The new particle accelerators and its experiments create a challenging data processing environment, characterized by large amount of data where only small portion of it carry the expected new scientific information. Modern detectors, such as the Cathode Strip Chamber (CSC), achieve high accuracy of coordinate measurements (between 50 to 70 microns). However, heavy physical backgrounds can decrease...
Thin gap chambers (TGCs) are used for the muon trigger system in the forward region of the LHC experiment ATLAS. The TGCs are expected to provide a trigger signal within 25 ns of the bunch spacing. About 3,600 ATLAS TGCs have been produced in Israel, Japan and China. The chambers go through a vigorous quality control program before installation. An extensive system test of the ATLAS muon spectrometer...
