Operation of the ATLAS detector with first collisions at 7 TeV at the LHC

arXiv:1012.1036

Abstract

The ATLAS experiment has successfully recorded over 300 nb^-1 of pp collisions at 7 TeV provided by the Large Hadron Collider, with an efficiency of 94%. We describe the data acquisition, trigger, reconstruction, calibration, monitoring, and luminosity measurement infrastructure that have made this possible.
