Study of the performance of the ATLAS monitored drift tube chambers under the influence of heavily ionizing $\alpha$-particles

The MDT chambers of the ATLAS Muon Spectrometer will operate in a heavy LHC background environment mainly from photons and neutrons. The ionization produced by neutron recoils is much higher than the one from photons or muons and can be simulated by the use of alpha particles. A systematic study of...
