48. Searches for dark matter particles produced in VBF processes in pp collisions at sqrt(s)=13 TeV with the ATLAS detector

Marta Maria Perego (CEA Saclay)

Talk

Dark Matter constitutes 80% of the matter in the universe, as confirmed by astrophysical and cosmological observations, but it has never been detected directly. An important role in the search for the dark matter particles is played by the LHC. In particular, scenarios where the dark matter has a coupling to the Higgs boson can be tested at the LHC by searching for the invisible decay of the...

64. The High Granularity Timing Detector

Mr Corentin Allaire (LAL)

Talk

In 2026 the high luminosity upgrade of the LHC (HL-LHC) will begin, bringing an improvement of a factor up to five for the luminosity (rate of interaction) in comparison to the original design value. One of the implication of the increase of the luminosity is an increase of the pile-up (number of interactions per collision) from around 25 events during the Run1 up to 200 during the HL-LHC for...

63. Development of new n-on-p active edge pixel detectors for ATLAS Inner Detector Upgrade

Mrs Tasneem Rashid (LAL)

5/31/17, 10:10 AM

Talk

Silicon detectors are playing a key role in High Energy Physics (HEP) experiments due to their superior tracking capabilities. In view of the upgrade plans of ATLAS experiment toward the high luminosity, the silicon tracking detector (ITK) will be operated in a very intense radiation environment. This work addresses the study of active edge n-in-p planar sensors. Active edge planar pixel...
