Triggers for displaced decays of long-lived neutral particles in the ATLAS detector

abstract:
A set of three dedicated triggers designed to detect long-lived neutral particles decaying
throughout the ATLAS detector to a pair of hadronic jets is described. The efficiencies of
the triggers for selecting displaced decays as a function of the decay position are presented for
simulated events. The effect of pile-up interactions on the trigger efficiencies and the dependence
of the trigger rate on instantaneous luminosity during the 2012 data-taking period at the LHC are
discussed.
