The scientific author list has been updated (as
of 30th September), as this will be done now
yearly for the purpose of the MO A
sharing Total Scientific Authors 1594 Scientific
Authors holding a PhD or equivalent 1305 (used
for MO A sharing)
3U.S. ATLAS Institutions
BNL is the Host Laboratory
4UX15 civil engineering
Status mid October 2002
5Barrel Cryostat ready for insertion
- Pressure test with final seals successful
- First EM wheel ready
- All 64 FTs produced, installation in
cryostat finished, all tested - Ready for insertion
6U.S. ATLAS Budget Authority
7Definitions for the Research Program
- U.S. ATLAS Research Program is needed to support
the ATLAS Experiment and especially our
deliverables. It includes - Maintenance and Operations (MO) which includes
- Pre-operations all activities until operations
- Operations Beams-on time 8 months/year
- Maintenance Ongoing plus Beams-off time every
1-2 years of 4 months - Upgrade RD
- Upgrade RD is envisaged for the luminosity
upgrade of the LHC 1035 cm-1 s-1 - New more radiation hardened electronics Pixels,
Silicon Strips, LAr Front End Boards (FEB), LAr
ROD upgrade, etc. - Physics and Computing
- Installation (defined as inserting the U.S. ATLAS
deliverable into ATLAS) is part of the
Construction Project
8Research Program Needs
9U.S. ATLAS Personnel
10U.S. ATLAS Skill Mix
11US ATLAS - Tier 1 Facility Staffing
12Scientific Effort on ATLAS
US ATLAS effort will ramp up by a factor 2 by
FY07 in anticipation of first LHC beam
13U.S. ATLAS Project Management Plan
14Separate MOUs for the Construction Project and
Research Program
15Needs from BNL
- Understanding of the Research Contracts to
universities - Needs for some transfers of funds to CERN
Category A B MO - Plans to increase the DOE base funding for the
ATLAS Physics Analysis Center
