GEM Commissioning

The GEM shutter was opened for the first time on 12th October 1999.

Below you can see examples of experimental data taken on GEM in the commissioning phase .barchart.gif (4263 bytes)

Thanks to the many experimenters whose data we show here.


Examples of Disordered Materials Data from GEM are available as part of the ATLAS-online manual.hotnew7.gif (1414 bytes)
