Priority:

Status:

In-progress

A T L A S.
Physics Research at the LHC

Leaders:	N.A. Russakovich V.A. Bednyakov
Deputy:	A.P. Cheplakov

Participating Countries, Institutes and International organizations:
Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Canada, CERN, Czech Republic, France, Georgia, Germany, Greece, Israel, Italy, Netherlands, Russia, Slovak Republic, Spain, USA, Uzbekistan.

Scientific Programme:
Many-sided and comprehensive investigations of superhigh-energy (10-14 TeV) proton scattering at the Large Hadron Collider with the ATLAS facility (created at the previous stage of the project) will yield utterly new and unique experimental data. Their analysis will allow solution to the most profound physical problems fundamentally important for world outlook.

JINR researchers will take part in solution of some of these problems within the project. Among the most important of them are the clarification of the origin of the elementary particle mass (Higgs mechanism) and search for and investigation of supersymmetry, which will allow an insight into the nature of galactic dark matter and the character of the evolution of our Universe. Other important problems are determination of the applicability boundaries of the modern standard model of elementary particles and observation of evidence for new physical phenomena, such as additional space dimensions or previously unknown particles and interactions. In addition, JINR researchers will get new results allowing more specific knowledge as to the properties of the already known elementary particles such as the W and Z bosons, the top quark, and others.

Implementation of this project aimed at solving highly important scientific problems will result in getting unique applied data.

The "by-products" worth noting are development, debugging, and experience in operation of systems for remote monitoring of highly complicated devices and development and practical use of the distributed computation system (GRID) in a long-term, full-scale experiment.

Expected main results in 2011:

Operation of ATLAS detector and the remote monitoring system at JINR.
Start of data development and analysis of the first ATLAS data with a view to calibrating the detector, studying its characteristics, etc.
The first physical results to be obtained in minimum bias physics and in investigations of some key processes of the Standard Model, including high-multiplicity processes, Drell-Yan processes, and others.
Development of ATLAS physics programme: physical processes simulations, participation in ATLAS working group, etc.
