A showcase of images and video from the construction of The ATLAS Experiment up to the moment when the first splash of particles in ATLAS was seen on September 10, 2008.
The final element of the detector as it was lowered into the cavern on Friday February 29th, 2008. The second "small wheel" is also the final part of the muon subsystem, but the wheels themselves are small in name only at 9.3 metres in diameter, and weighing in at 100 tons each.
September 10, 2008 - The ATLAS detector lit up as a flood of particles traversed the detector when the beam was occasionally directed at a target near ATLAS. This allowed ATLAS physicists to study how well the various components of the detector were functioning in preparation for the forthcoming collisions.
The first ATLAS data recorded on September 10, 2008 is seen here.
The animation in the front page of atlas.ch. Showing a fall to Earth, aerial view of Switzerland, the LHC ring, CERN, diving underground to the ATLAS pit, and finally a layered view of the detector.
The ATLAS Silicon Tracker is moved manually inside the ATLAS Transition Radiation Tracker, prior to moving and installing into the ATLAS detector.
