Description

The High Luminosity-Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC) will reach an approximate pile-up of 200 collisions per bunch crossing, ten times more than the current Large Hadron Collider. Beginning operation at the end of the decade, it will accumulate 3000 fb-1, increasing the chances of observing new processes and allowing measurement of rare processes with higher precision. Moreover, the pile-up increase means more particle production, causing higher radiation damage and detector occupancy conditions. Therefore, the current tracking system in the ATLAS detector will be replaced by the new Inner Tracker system (ITk). ITk is based on silicon detectors, composed of individual sensors and readout electronics called modules. This project concerns testing the module’s electrical response to repeated thermal cycling. To perform the tests, a controllable environmental chamber is under construction, The Cold Box.
