Additional information
This conference paper describes further studies done after it became clear that the original ATLAS tracker evaporative cooling system would not achieve its design specifications. A small task force within ATLAS looked into the implications of these shortcomings and tried to predict the consequences over the full lifetime of ATLAS. I made significant contributions to this effort, in particular with modeling the thermal runaway, and was the main editor of the internal report we produced. This paper is the presentation of our work and conclusions at the Vienna Instrumentation Conference 2009.
