Competition # 617Production AssistantMore than a hundred Canadian researchers from across the country, including TRIUMF researchers, are collaborating on an international experiment called ATLAS at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) near Geneva, Switzerland. The experiment is designed to help us find answers to the most fundamental questions about what the universe is made of and how it works. The TRIUMF-ATLAS ITk group is involved in the construction of improved silicon based tracking detectors. TRIUMF's specific responsibility is to produce about 1000 ITk silicon-strip detector modules, which will be mounted on carbon-fibre structures for installation in ATLAS.
