Status of animated film of ATLAS for the public and students
Project initiated by Amelia Maio and Lisbon group.
US-ATLAS employing João Pequenão (who created the “installation” movie) now working at Berkeley.
The public animation has three episodes:
1. Overview – Draft ready for comments
2. Particles in ATLAS – In progress (need shower info)
3. Physics in ATLAS – Not started
Your suggestions, criticisms, and comments on the draft work are needed.
Status of animated film of ATLAS for the public and students
Episode 2 – components statusViews complete; particle passage in progress• Pixel detector• Tilecal
Views complete; particle passage in planning• SCT• Liquid Argon Cal• Muons
Technical diagrams expected soon• TRT
“Particle passage” = how they work.Need particle shower image in calorimeter.
Narration is essential and will be added when graphics work is complete.
Animated film now in Stereo 3D
In order to give a superior perspective and yield a more dramatic film, stereo 3D using red-cyan glasses.
This is a work in progress.
Overall effect very good, but some sections work better than others.
Narration is essential and will be added when graphics work is complete.
Animation in Stereo 3D
Fold glasses so blue is on your right.
Episode 1 – 3D effects visible only when detector assembly begins.
Episode 2 – Pixel segment begins immediately after episode 1.
Note – TileCal segment not yet in 3D.

Alternative colors needed for 3D Stereo
Upgraded Public Website
Please see ATLAS.ch
Includes a 40-second Flash animation showing aspects of the ATLAS Experiment.
Gives access to the ATLAS movie, photos, PowerPoint animations, live webcams, and four
“e-Tours”.
LHC Deck of Cards
• The four LHC experiments + LHC project• Initial printing: 10 000 decks– Clubs – Standard Model and Big Bang– Diamonds – CERN + history– Hearts – Alice + LHCb + LHC– Spades – ATLAS + CMS + LHC

ATLAS ModelRutherford Appleton Laboratory: The ATLAS model has been designed to be taken apart during a lecture to reveal the successive detection layers. (It could of course also be built up during the lecture.) The model is built of wood and plastic, and the removable pieces are held in place largely though magnetic strips embedded in the structure. A LED at the centre can be switched on to indicate the collision region. http://hepweb.rl.ac.uk/ppep/exhibits/LHC/atlas/ATLAS.htm
