Description

The LHC will undergo a major upgrade during the upcoming Long
Shutdown 3. The goal of the upgrade is to increase the collider luminosity, i.e. the
number of collisions per second. This means higher strain on the already ageing
ATLAS detector, so it also has to be upgraded. Part of the upgrade is replacement
of the current tracker for new full-silicon tracker called Inner Tracker (ITk). This
poster describes the process of manufacturing and testing the ITk modules as it is
done here in Prague.
