| PI Contribution | Warwick supports the operation of ATLAS through trigger operation, maintenance and development. We play leading roles here, currently providing the trigger monitoring coordinator and deputy overall coordinator, but with the precise role held varying with time. We are also contributing to the phase-II upgrade, developing and building the quality checking system for the detector modules the UK and China are making for the tracker. We are active in a range of physics analyses: studies of the Higgs boson and QCD and searches for new physics. |
| Collaborator Contribution | The collaboration of 3000 people has too many activities to usefully describe here. |
| Impact | The discipline is Physics. 1000 papers have been produced by the collaboration, with Warwick playing a leading role in dozens, |
