Alignment of the ATLAS Inner Detector Tracking System

The position and orientation of the modules of the ATLAS Inner Detector tracking system must be known to O(10 microns) precision in order to not degrade the tracking performance significantly.

Sumario:The position and orientation of the modules of the ATLAS Inner Detector tracking system must be known to O(10 microns) precision in order to not degrade the tracking performance significantly. Here we briefly describe the track-based approach that is used to determine the ID alignment, and present the results of aligning the Inner Detector using the cosmic ray data collected in the final months of 2008.
