■ ATLAS has successfully collected first LHC collision data.
■ The whole experiment operated efficiently and fast, from data taking at the pit, to data transfer worldwide, to the production of first results (on a very short time scale … few days).
■ First LHC data indicate that the performance of the detector, simulation and reconstruction (including the understanding of material and control of instrumental effects) is far better than expected at this (initial) stage of the experiment and in an energy regime ATLAS was not optimized for.
■ Years of test beam activities, increasingly realistic simulations, and commissioning with cosmics to understand and optimize the detector performance and validate the software tools were fundamental to achieve these results.
■ The enthusiasm and the team spirit in the Collaboration are extraordinary.
This is only the beginning of an exciting physics phase and a major achievement of the worldwide ATLAS Collaboration after > 20 years of efforts to build a detector of unprecedented technology, complexity and performance.
