Abstract
This paper reports on the design and construction of
infrastructure and test stations for small-diameter monitored drift
tube (sMDT) assembly and testing at the University of Michigan (UM)
to prepare for the ATLAS Muon Spectrometer upgrade for the
high-luminosity program of the Large Hadron Collider. Procedures of
the tube assembly and quality assurance and control (QA/QC) tests
are described in detail. More than 99% of the tubes meet the tube
QA/QC specifications based on 2100 tubes built at UM. The UM test
stations are also used for QA/QC testing on the tubes constructed at
Michigan State University. These tubes are being used to construct
the sMDT chambers which will replace the current MDT chambers of the
barrel inner station of the Muon Spectrometer.
