At CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, physicists and engineers are probing the fundamental structure of the universe. Using the world’s largest and most complex scientific instruments, they study the basic constituents of matter – fundamental particles that are made to collide together at close to the speed of light. The process gives physicists clues about how particles interact, and provides insights into the fundamental laws of nature. Find out more on http://home.cern.
Introduction
The ATLAS experiment is preparing its track reconstruction software for the innermost tracking system (ITk) and the Muon Spectrometer (MS) to meet the stringent requirements of the High-Luminosity (Phase-2) upgrade. This software will be integrated into a common framework, based on the ACTS (A Common Track Reconstruction) toolkit, which is used both in the online event filter as well as for offline data reconstruction.
The ATLAS Data Processing Group (ADP), within CERN’s Experimental Physics Department (EP), is seeking for three highly skilled and motivated software specialists to boost development and take a leading role in this area. The Next Generation Trigger project was setup for this purpose.
