In 1996 was signed
Interim Memorandum of Understanding for ATLAS experiment
(period two years 1996-1997) and in July 1998 was prepared
Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) for ATLAS experiment up to 2005, which was
signed by Minister of education of Slovak republic at November 26th,
2002.
These two acts represent the basic juridical background for our present
activities in ATLAS experiment.
According to MoU of the
ATLAS
experiment, our financial obligations during whole time period of the
detector construction are following:
core expenses: 100 000,- CHF
core expenses expressed as in-kind invoices: 100 000,- CHF
hardware contribution into liquid argon subdetectors, especially
into the construction of the hadronic end-cap calorimeter:
304 000,- CHF
The proposal and the development of the calibration system for HEC
calorimeter is serious and difficult task. We would like to stress that all
our finance responsibilities had been fulfilled at the end of 2004.
The finance
policy of the ATLAS collaboration is administered by the
LHC Resource Review Board - ATLAS, where Slovakia has one regular member from
our Ministry of education.
