Description
The ATLAS Pixel Detector is the innermost detector of the ATLAS experi- ment at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN, providing high-resolution mea- surements of charged particle tracks in the high radiation environment close to the collision region. It is the unique 4-pixel detector layers
in HEP. The operation and performance of the Pixel Detector at LHC running are described. More than 97% of the detector modules were operational during this period, with an average intrinsic hit efficiency larger than 99 %. The evolution of the noise occupancy is discussed, and measurements of the Lorentz angle, delta-ray production and energy loss presented.
