Introduction

The following documentation presents the elements and attributes used to describe specific detector components of the ATLAS Muon Spectrometer. The names are specific to the AGDD descriptions. However, as there is currently a one-to-one mapping between AGDD and AMDB, the documentation is useful for understanding the AMDB.

The Elements


ENC

Element of type composition. Contains the complete description of the Endcap Toroids of the ATLAS Detector. It comprises 8 ENC_TOR elements multi-positioned in phi.

Endcap Toroid

ENC_TOR

Element of type ENC_Toroid. One of 8 phi sectors of the endcap toroid.It is composed by one ENC_COND_BOX , a system of support plates ENC_SUPP_PLATES and an external envelope ENC_CRYO.

ENC_CRYO

Element of type ENC_Cryostat.It consists in an outern surface divided in two sectors,composed by the elements ENC_CRYO_Outer_surf , ENC_CRYO_Side and ENC_CRYO_Inner_tube,and a tube embedded in the middle (ENC_CRYO_STAYTUBE).

ENC_SUPP_PLATES

Element of type ENC_Support_Plates.It is composed by two lateral trapezoid (ENC_SUPP_PLATES_Surf_side) with an hole to lodge the ENC_CRYO_STAYTUBE,and two orizontal plates (ENC_SUPP_PLATES_Surf_up/down).

Comparison with layout p.03

To implement the geometry layout p.03 add new element SERVICE TURRET to place on top of each ENC, change value of attributes "Stay Tube : T_Position", "Stay Tube : D_Radius" and "Stay Tube : D_Phi" of element ENC_CRYO_STAYTUBE, and modify all Z_dimensions of +70 mm.
