The document discusses the Atlas experiment at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN. Atlas is a particle physics experiment that uses a detector to explore fundamental forces and the nature of matter. The Atlas detector consists of four major components: an inner detector to measure particle momentum, calorimeters to measure particle energies, a muon spectrometer to identify and measure muon momentum, and a magnet system to bend charged particles for momentum measurement. The LHC and Atlas experiment are expected to generate large amounts of data to advance understanding of physics.
4. Baryon: A hadron made from three quarks. The proton (uud)
and the neutron (udd) are both baryons. They also contain
additional quark-antiquak pairs
5. The Standard Model answers many of the questions about
the structura and stability of matter with six types of
quarks, six types of leptons, and four forces.
But the Standard model is not complete; trere are many
unanswered questions.

7. Higgs boson: The carrier particle or quantum excitation of
the additional force needed to introduce particle masses in
the Standard model. Not yet observed

9. Atlas:Atlas is a particle physics experiment in the Large
Hadron Collider at the CERN laboratory. It will explore the
fundamental nature of matter and the basic forces that shape
our Universe.
Originally Atlas was an acronym for A Toroidal LCH ApparatuS.

11. El flujo de datos previsto desde los detectores se estima en 300 GB/s.
Se espera que el proyecto genere 27 TeraBytes de datos por sg.
Se espera que produzca de 10 a 15 PetaBytes de datos por año
Se envían desde el CERN a 11 instituciones que son la “fila 12 de procesamiento
Otras 150 instituciones son la “fila 2”
15. The Atlas detector consists of four major components
Inner Detector: Measures the momentum of each charged particle
Calorimeters: Measure the energies carries by the particles.
Muon Spectrometer: Identifies and measures the momenta of muons.
Magnet System: Bends charged particles for momentum measurement.
