description The LUCID-2 detector is the main online and offline luminosity monitor of the ATLAS experiment. It provides 104 different luminosity measurements from different algorithms for each of the thousands of LHC bunches. The new detector is using the quartz windows of 10 mm diameter photomultipliers and optical quartz fibers as the Cherenkov medium. A main challenge for a luminometer is to keep the efficiency constant during years of data-taking. LUCID-2 is using an innovative calibration system based on radioactive Bi-207 sources deposited on the quartz window of the readout photomultipliers.
