ATLAS Upgrade: meeting the challenges of the sLHC

With the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) providing pp collisions data at sqrt(s)=7 TeV, plans are already advancing for a series of upgrades leading eventually to about 5 x 10^{34} cm-2 s-1 some ten years from now in the super-LHC (sLHC) project. The goal is to extend the dataset from about few hundreds...

Sumario:With the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) providing pp collisions data at sqrt(s)=7 TeV, plans are already advancing for a series of upgrades leading eventually to about 5 x 10^{34} cm-2 s-1 some ten years from now in the super-LHC (sLHC) project. The goal is to extend the dataset from about few hundreds fb-1 expected by 2020 to few thousands fb-1 by around 2030. High instantaneous and integrated luminosities are the challenge that will require many changes to the ATLAS detector. The designs are developing rapidly for a new tracking detector, significant changes in the calorimeter and muon systems, as well as improved triggers and data acquisition system. These proceedings summarise the environment expected at the sLHC and the status of the improvements to the ATLAS detector.
