Abstract: | In 2004, a combined system test was performed in the H8 beam line atthe CERN SPS with a setup reproducing the geometry of sectors of theATLAS Muon Spectrometer, formed by three stations of Monitored DriftTubes (MDT). The full ATLAS analysis chain Was used to obtain theresults presented in this paper. The basic design performances of theWon Spectrometer were verified. The stability of MDT calibrationconstants, the alignment system using optical devices and high energytracks, as well as the intrinsic sagitta resolution of the MuonSpectrometer were studied and found to agree with expectations. Thereconstruction of muon tracks using the combined information from boththe Inner Detector and the Muon Spectrometer are also presented. (C)2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved. |
