The ATLAS Experiment for the Large Hadron Collider is under construction at the CERN Laboratory in Switzerland. Its goal is to explore the fundamental nature of matter and the basic forces that shape our universe. The main target is a search for Higgs particle, which is the only missing part of the "Standard Model of the elemetary particles"
Japanese colleagues is working for the endcap muon trigger chambers (TGC) and scillicon tracker (SCT). We, ATLAS-Kobe group, works for inspection of TGCs which are constructed at KEK.
