Measurement of the muon reconstruction performance of the ATLAS detector using 2011 and 2012 LHC proton-proton collision data

Abstract
This paper presents the performance of the ATLAS muon reconstruction during the LHC run with collisions at TeV in 2011-2012, focusing mainly on data collected in 2012. Measurements of the reconstruction efficiency and of the momentum scale and resolution, based on large reference samples of , and decays, are presented and compared to Monte Carlo simulations. Corrections to the simulation, to be used in physics analysis, are provided. Over most of the covered phase space (muon and GeV) the efficiency is above and is measured with per-mille precision. The momentum resolution ranges from at central rapidity and for transverse momentum GeV, to at large rapidity and GeV. The momentum scale is known with an uncertainty of to depending on rapidity. A method for the recovery of final state radiation from the muons is also presented.
