📄 Abstract

The luminosity calibration for the ATLAS detector at the LHC during pp collisions at √ s = 7 TeV in 2010 and 2011 is presented.Evaluation of the luminosity scale is performed using several luminosity-sensitive detectors, and comparisons are made of the long-term stability and accuracy of this calibration applied to the pp collisions at √ s = 7 TeV.A luminosity uncertainty of δL/L = ±3.5 % is obtained for the 47 pb -1 of data delivered to ATLAS in 2010, and an uncertainty of δL/L = ±1.8% is obtained for the 5.5 fb -1 delivered in 2011.
