Join the audience on 20 May from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. for the latest edition of the "News from the Lab" event series which will be dedicated to the ATLAS New Small Wheels (NSW). ATLAS experimental physicist Kostas Ntekas will give a presentation on the NSW and his ATLAS colleague Florencia Denari will be moderating the event.
The NSW refer to the upgraded innermost muon detection layers (Small Wheels), which received completely new detectors and electronics to allow for an ever more precise muon track reconstruction and provide essential muon triggering capabilities. The NSW, which are currently being installed on the detector, are a part of the broader overhaul of ATLAS, aimed at preparing the detector for future higher luminosities within the LHC.
