Abstract
PANDORE is the environmental box that is going to be used for the quality control of loaded local supports of the ATLAS ITk Pixel Outer Barrel at LAPP (Annecy, France). First PANDORE, its ...interlock system, diphasic CO

cooling station, and data acquisition system are described. Subsequently, the results of the qualification tests are shown. Given the complexity of the ITk Pixel Outer Barrel system, several loading sites are going to be needed. By documenting the state-of-the-art of PANDORE, this note aims to help the wide ITk Pixel community in the discussion for standardizing the quality control procedure and equipment of the loaded local supports.
This paper describes the evaporative system used to cool the silicon detector structures of the inner detector sub-detectors of the ATLAS experiment at the CERN Large Hadron Collider. The motivation ...for an evaporative system, its design and construction are discussed. In detail the particular requirements of the ATLAS inner detector, technical choices and the qualification and manufacture of final components are addressed. Finally results of initial operational tests are reported. Although the entire system described, the paper focuses on the on-detector aspects. Details of the evaporative cooling plant will be discussed elsewhere.

To calibrate the energy response of the ATLAS liquid argon calorimeter, an electronics calibration board has been designed; it delivers a signal whose shape is close to the calorimeter ionization ...current signal with amplitude up to 100
mA in 50
Ω with 16
bit dynamic range. The amplitude of this signal is designed to be uniform over all calorimeters channels, stable in time and with an integral linearity much better that the electronics readout. The various R&D phases and most of the difficulties met are discussed and illustrated by many measurements. The custom design circuits are described and the layout of the ATLAS calibration board presented. The procedure used to qualify the boards is explained and the performance obtained illustrated: a dynamic range up to 3
TeV in three energy scales with an integral linearity better than 0.1% in each of them, a response uniformity better than 0.2% and a stability better than 0.1%. The performance of the board is well within the ATLAS requirements. Finally, in situ measurements done on the ATLAS calorimeter are shown to validate these performances.
The ATLAS detector has been built to study the reactions produced by the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). ATLAS includes a system of liquid argon calorimeters for energy measurements. The electronics for ...amplifying, shaping, sampling, pipelining, and digitizing the calorimeter signals is implemented on a set of front-end electronic boards. The front-end boards are installed in crates mounted between the calorimeters, where they will be subjected to significant levels of radiation during LHC operation. As a result, all components used on the front-end boards had to be subjected to an extensive set of radiation qualification tests. This paper describes radiationtolerant designs, radiation testing, and radiation qualification of the front-end readout system for the ATLAS liquid argon calorimeters.
In the rabbit, a p59 protein included in the untransformed, non-DNA binding, "8-9S," steroid receptor complexes binds heat shock protein M(r) approximately 90,000 (hsp90). Sequence data Lebeau, M. ...C., Massol, N., Herrick, J., Faber, L. E., Renoir, J. M., Radanyi, C. & Baulieu, E. E. (1992) J. Biol. Chem. 267, 4281-4284 and hydrophobic cluster analysis delineate, from the N terminus, two successive domains closely related to the immunosuppressant FK506 binding immunophilin FKBP (FK506 binding protein), consistent with recent purification of the human p56 immunophilin cognate protein by FK506 affinity chromatography Yem, A. W., Tomasselli, A. G., Heinrikson, R. L., Zurcher-Neely, H., Ruff, V. A., Johnson, R. A. & Deibel, M. R., Jr. (1992) J. Biol. Chem. 267, 2868-2871. The first FKBP-like domain demonstrates all structural characteristics known to be necessary for immunosuppressant binding and for peptidylprolyl cis-trans isomerase (rotamase) activity. Hence, p59 is a "hsp binding immunophilin" (HBI). It is thus speculated that hsp binding immunophilin may help the assembly/disassembly mechanisms involved in steroid receptor trafficking and activity and participate in the poorly understood hsp90 function. ATP/GTP binding likely occurs within the second FKBP-like domain, near the FK506 binding site on the FKBP template. A third domain detected by the hydrophobic cluster analysis method is distantly structurally related to the two first FKBP-like domains and is followed by the C-terminal part of the protein, which contains a calmodulin binding consensus sequence. Hsp binding immunophilin may be involved in a number of immunological, endocrinological, and chaperone-mediated pathways.
The primary sequence of the rabbit liver cDNA coding for protein p59 has been determined. The protein binds to the 90-kDa
heat shock protein (hsp 90) and is associated with it, including when hsp 90 ...participates in hetero-oligomeric complexes of
untransformed mammalian steroid receptors that sediment at 8-10 S. The cloned cDNA codes for an open reading frame of 458
amino acids defining a yet unknown protein. However, 55% amino acid homology to peptidyl-prolyl isomerase is found between
amino acids 41 and 137, suggesting rotamase activity for p59, which speculatively may apply to bound hsp 90 and thus be implied
in the intracellular trafficking of hetero-oligomeric forms of steroid hormone receptors. A polyclonal antibody derived from
the COOH-terminal peptide 441-458 demonstrates a good affinity for rabbit, rat, and human "p59" protein. It interacts with
at least one epitope, available in 8-10 S untransformed steroid receptor complexes and different from that recognized by the
monoclonal antibody KN382/EC-1.
This paper reports inclusive and differential measurements of the $t\bar{t}$ charge asymmetry $A_{\textrm{C}}$ in 20.3 fb$^{-1}$ of $\sqrt{s} = 8$ TeV $pp$ collisions recorded by the ATLAS experiment ...at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN. Three differential measurements are performed as a function of the invariant mass, transverse momentum and longitudinal boost of the $t\bar{t}$ system. The $t\bar{t}$ pairs are selected in the single-lepton channels ($e$ or $\mu$) with at least four jets, and a likelihood fit is used to reconstruct the $t\bar{t}$ event kinematics. A Bayesian unfolding procedure is performed to infer the asymmetry at parton level from the observed data distribution. The inclusive $t\bar{t}$ charge asymmetry is measured to be $A_{\textrm{C}} = 0.009 \pm 0.005$ (stat.$+$syst.). The inclusive and differential measurements are compatible with the values predicted by the Standard Model.

Searches are performed for resonant and non-resonant Higgs boson pair production in the hh to gamma gamma b bbar final state using 20 fb-1 of proton--proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 8 ...TeV recorded with the ATLAS detector at the CERN Large Hadron Collider. A 95% confidence level upper limit on the cross section times branching ratio of non-resonant production is set at 2.2 pb, while the expected limit is 1.0 pb. The corresponding limit observed for a narrow resonance ranges between 0.8 and 3.5 pb as a function of its mass.
The inclusive jet cross-section is measured in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV using a data set corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 4.5 fb$^{-1}$ collected with ...the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider in 2011. Jets are identified using the anti-$k_t$ algorithm with radius parameter values of 0.4 and 0.6. The double-differential cross-sections are presented as a function of the jet transverse momentum and the jet rapidity, covering jet transverse momenta from 100 GeV to 2 TeV. Next-to-leading-order QCD calculations corrected for non-perturbative effects and electroweak effects, as well as Monte Carlo simulations with next-to-leading-order matrix elements interfaced to parton showering, are compared to the measured cross-sections. A quantitative comparison of the measured cross-sections to the QCD calculations using several sets of parton distribution functions is performed.
