The full ATLAS analysis chain Was used to obtain theresults presented in this paper. The basic design performances of theWon Spectrometer were verified. The stability of MDT calibrationconstants, the alignment system using optical devices and high energytracks, as well as the intrinsic sagitta resolution of the MuonSpectrometer were studied and found to agree with expectations.
