Abstract | Since the start of the LHC operations, ATLAS has recorded several hundred million cosmic-ray events. These events have been very useful in the commissioning of the individual ATLAS subdetectors and the assessment of their individual performance. Given the nature of the cosmic events traversing all of the ATLAS subdetectors, these events are also a precious source to assess the combined performance of the real ATLAS detector before first collisions. |
