Abstract

The Transition Radiation Tracker (TRT) is the outer most tracking detector of the ATLAS experiment. In addition as functioning as atracking detector, it is capable of providing particle identification
information through the emission and subsequent absorption and detection of transition radiation. Below the effort of simulating transition radiation production and detector response is discussed, with
emphasis on the data/simulation agreement and tuning. © 2012 CERN. Published by Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
