LIP - Detalhes

ATLAS is the largest of the four gigantic experiments operating at the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC) where protons and lead ions are made to collide at unprecedented high energies and luminosities. The LHC allows us to explore the high energy frontier of particle physics, to go into uncharted territory beyond our current knowledge and try to understand the fundamental building blocks and the forces that shape our Universe. After our milestone discovery of the Higgs boson in 2012 we need to study its properties. We also continue to search for new physics, to do precise measurements and confront them with the Standard Model predictions, and to study the properties of the quark-gluon plasma which was observed at the LHC. The Portuguese ATLAS group contributed to the experiment since the beginning. We took part in its construction and continue to operate, maintain, and improve the detector, as well as analyse the data that it records. Our research at LIP spans physics studies in the Higgs sector, top quark, heavy ions, and exotic physics. We also have a strong participation in detector and trigger performance studies, operation, consolidation and upgrade, with main responsibilities in the TileCal calorimeter and the jet trigger.
