“…To confirm the calculated capacitance and rms variation, measurements of the electrode capacitance for every electrode in every module were performed [18]. This was done in a clean room so the dielectric of the gap was standard air at about 380 m altitude and about 40% relative humidity rather than liquid argon.…”

The ATLAS Forward Calorimeter

On Behalf of the ATLAS LIQUID ARGON Collaboration Complete calorimetric hermeticity is important for many physics studies at the LHC. In order to extend the pseudorapidity coverage up to 4.9 units, ATLAS uses a liquid argon forward calorimeter integrated into the endcap cryostat. In this region only a modest stochastic term is required in the energy resolution. The main challenge is survivability and reliability in this hostile environment. We discuss the development of the forward calorimeter from construction to its utility in physics studies.
