Abstract
ATLAS is a general purpose spectrometer in preparation to take data on the Large Hadron Collider at CERN. It will start its operation in autumn 2007. Charged particle tracking is realised by the Inner Detector (ID). It consists of two silicon subsystems: Pixel Detector and Semiconductor Tracker, complemented by straw proportional gas chambers. In order to exploit the excellent intrinsic resolution of the precision tracking devices a high accuracy alignment is required. In this report the strategy to align silicon detectors of the ATLAS ID will be reviewed together with the current status of preparation.
