However, displaced signatures are notoriously difficult to identify due to their ability to evade standard object reconstruction strategies. In particular, the ATLAS track reconstruction applies strict pointing requirements which limit sensitivity to charged particles originating far from the primary interaction point. To recover efficiency for LLPs decaying within the tracking detector volume, the ATLAS Collaboration employs a dedicated large-radius tracking (LRT) passwith loosened pointing requirements. During Run 2 of the LHC, the LRT implementation produced many incorrectly reconstructed tracks and was therefore only deployed in small subsets of events. In preparation for LHC Run 3, ATLAS has significantly improved both standard and large-radius track reconstruction performance, allowing for LRT to run in all events. This development greatly expands the potential phase-space of LLP searches and streamlines LLP analysis workflows. This paper will highlight the above achievement and report on the readiness of the ATLAS detector for track-based LLP searches in Run 3.", optnote="WOS:001144517400001", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=5920), last updated on Sun, 11 Feb 2024 19:40:36 +0000", issn="1434-6044", doi="10.1140/epjc/s10052-023-12024-6", opturl="https://arxiv.org/abs/2304.12867", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1140/epjc/s10052-023-12024-6", language="English" }
