Commissioning experience of the ATLAS pixel detector

G. Gaycken-2009-07-03

TL;DRAbstract

In 2007, the vertex detector for the ATLAS experiment [1] at the LHC was finally installed. After some delay caused by ongoing work on surrounding sub-detectors, the connections were finished and the commissioning was started in the beginning of 2008. An important step of the commissioning is the calibration of the 80 million individually tunable pixel. The calibration procedures are described in the following after a brief description of the vertex detector. Finally, some aspects of the assembly, the installation and the commissioning are presented.
