Project: B3

Title:          Testbeam analysis of silicon strip detector prototypes for the ATLAS Inner Tracker

DESY group:     ATLAS

Type:           Online project

Duration:       6 weeks during 19th july - 10th sep 2021

Description:    
High-energy particle testbeams such as provided by the DESY II testbeam are a vital 
tool for the development of novel sensor technologies as well as the test of prototype 
detector components. 
Measurements of different detector prototypes of silicon strip sensor modules foreseen
for the new ATLAS Inner Tracker will be used to determine their performance, e.g. in 
terms of hit detection efficiency.
The student will work on the testbeam reconstruction using the Corryvreckan software 
framework and contribute to the data analysis pursued in the collaboration.


Special Qualifications expected:
C++ programming, ideally experience with Root; Git versioning
