The Tile Calorimeter (TileCal), the central hadronic calorimeter of the ATLAS experiment, and the ATLAS Inner Detector (ID) play an important role due to their luminosity measurements being independent of pileup. Comparison of the LUCID luminosity measurements in different run conditions to those obtained by TileCal and ID, as well as a comparison of TileCal to ID, is used to measure and study the dominant systematic uncertainty associated with the LUCID luminosity measurement. In this document the methods of measuring ATLAS luminosity with the Tile Calorimeter and its transformation to a systematic uncertainty are described.","PeriodicalId":20428,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 40th International Conference on High Energy physics — PoS(ICHEP2020)","volume":"11 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-02-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91503266","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Monitoring of the time calibration with a laser system and collision data are discussed as well.

Starting from this generic data representation, we build a simple Bayesian probabilistic model for event measurements useful for unsupervised event classification in beyond the standard model (BSM) studies. In order to arrive to this model we assume that the event measurements are exchangeable (and apply De Finetti’s representation theorem), the data is discrete, and measurements are generated frommultiple ‘latent’ distributions (called themes). The resulting probabilistic model for collider events is a mixed-membership model known as Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA), a model extensively used in natural language processing applications. By training on mixed dijet samples of QCD and BSM, we demonstrate that a two-theme LDA model can learn to distinguish in (unlabelled) jet substructure data the hidden new physics patterns produced by a non-trivial BSM signature from a much larger QCD background.","PeriodicalId":20428,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 40th International Conference on High Energy physics — PoS(ICHEP2020)","volume":"34 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-02-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82727282","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Driven mainly by future upgrades of existing experiments at high-luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) and for applications at future accelerators, we started an R&D project to push further this technology for operations under very high particle flow up to rates of tens MHz/cm, three orders of magnitude higher than current applications.

The amplified ionization charge is collected on copper anode strips kept at a slightly floating electrical potential. The charge signal is coupled to two layers of perpendicular readout strips in x and y, insulated by thin Kapton layers. A complete understanding of the signal formation in the detector, particularly on the orthogonal y-strips, is achieved: simulations disentangle the signal coupling due to alternating weighting field lines with respect to the ion velocity vector and the response of charge sensitive front-end electronics. Different two-dimensional anode designs with optimized strip geometry have been developed based on the simulations. We present the performance of the detector for the different designs measured in 20 MeV proton/neutron and 180 GeV pion/muon beams, using APV25 front-end electronics.","PeriodicalId":20428,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 40th International Conference on High Energy physics — PoS(ICHEP2020)","volume":"184 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-02-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80525336","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
