Trigger Performance Studies with a small-strip Thin Gap Chamber quadruplet — •Ksenia Solovieva, Jose Antonio Fernandez Pretel, Vladislavs Plesanovs, Patrick Scholer, and Ulrich Landgraf — Albert-Ludwigs University, Freiburg, Germany

The ongoing ATLAS detector upgrade includes the implementation of the New Small Wheels as part of the Muon Spectrometer. One of its detector technologies is the small-strip Thin Gap Chamber (sTGC), used for improved triggering and tracking in a higher particle rate environment. The sTGC detector readout is segmented into strips and pads, which play a key role in the trigger chain. For the purpose of investigating the sTGC pad trigger performance, a quadruplet was set up in a cosmic muon test stand in Freiburg and read out with the final ATLAS NSW readout system. This presentation discusses the goals and challenges of the setup, as well as presenting the prospective results of the trigger studies.
