3D detectors for the High Luminosity LHC, with a feasibility study into the observation of ZZ production in the Z → ee/μμ, Z → ττ channel with the ATLAS detector

This thesis presents three bodies of work related to the ATLAS detector and physics measurements at the high luminosity frontier. The first investigates the use of 3D silicon detectors at the High Luminosity LHC. Several sensors are irradiated up to a fluence equal to that expected in the ATLAS pixe...
