"Searches for Long Lived Particles with the ATLAS detector"
Abstract: In fulfillment of the qualification requirements I will be presenting on my work over the past two years in developing and testing a radiation hard ADC chip that will go into the High Luminosity-LHC upgrades for LAr subdetector in ALTAS at CERN. I will also present about my current and future work, using the ATLAS detector in a novel approach to look for Long-Lived particles as possible dark matter candidates.
