Atlantis is an event display for the ATLAS experiment at CERN's Large Hadron Collider. The primary goals of the program are the visual investigation and the understanding of the physics of complete events. Secondary goals are to help develop reconstruction and analysis algorithms, to facilitate debugging during commisioning and to provided a tool for creating pictures and animations for publications, presentations and exhibitions.
