Description

The ATLAS detector is a multi-purpose detector which will be installed on the LHC collider at CERN. It has been designed to search for possible new physics phenomena in the energy range of ∼ 100 GeV to ∼ 1 TeV. The traditional signature for new physics are based on high PT photons, leptons and missing transverse energy. The calorimeters place a crucial role in such a search. The status of construction and recent test beam results for the ATLAS and liquid argon calorimetry system (electromagnetic, hadronic and forward calorimeters) are reported as well as a new development on the first-level trigger systems for electromagnetic cluster and isolated hadrons.
