abstract

This paper presents the performance of the ATLAS muon reconstruction during the LHC run with $pp$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}=7-8$ TeV in 2011-2012, focusing mainly on data collected in 2012. Measurements of the reconstruction efficiency and of the momentum scale and resolution, based on large reference samples of $J/\psi\to \mu\mu$, $Z\to \mu\mu$ and $\Upsilon\to\mu\mu$ decays, are presented and compared to Monte Carlo simulations. Corrections to the simulation, to be used in physics analysis, are provided. Over most of the covered phase space (muon $|\eta|<2.7$ and $5 \lesssim p_{\mathrm{T}} \lesssim 100$ GeV) the efficiency is above $99\%$ and is measured with per-mille precision. The momentum resolution ranges from $1.7\%$ at central rapidity and for transverse momentum $p_{\mathrm{T}} \simeq 10$ GeV, to $4\%$ at large rapidity and $p_{\mathrm{T}} \simeq 100$ GeV. The momentum scale is known with an uncertainty of $0.05\%$ to $0.2\%$ depending on rapidity. A method for the recovery of final state radiation from the muons is also presented.

  1. "They Aren't Built For Me": An Exploratory Study of Strategies for Measurement of Graphical Primitives in Tactile Graphics

    cs.HC 2025-08 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    An exploratory study with 11 blind and low vision participants finds visual chart encodings are only partly usable in tactile graphics, so tactile-specific strategies and design guidelines are needed.
