The Status of the CMS Forward Pixel Detector
نویسنده
چکیده
The silicon pixel detector is the innermost component of the CMS tracking system. It provides precise measurements of space points to allow effective pattern recognition in multiple track environments near the LHC interaction point. The end disks of the pixel detector, known as the Forward Pixel detector, are constructed mainly by the US-CMS collaborators. The design techniques, readout electronics, test beam activities, and construction status are reviewed.

Experience with CMS pixel software commissioning
The CMS Pixel detector, consisting of three barrel layers and two endcap disks at each barrel end, was installed in the CMS experiment in summer 2008. After a preliminary commissioning phase with pulse injections the detector participated to data taking with cosmic ray trigger and 3.8T field. In this article, we describe the software for event reconstruction, as well as the status of the calibr...
متن کاملCMS Tracker Upgrade for HL-LHC: R&D Plans, Present Status and Perspectives
During the high luminosity phase of the LHC (HL-LHC), the machine is expected to deliver an instantaneous luminosity of 5× 10 cm−2s−1. A total of 3000 fb−1 of data is foreseen to be delivered, with the opening of new physics potential for the LHC experiments, but also new challenges from the point of view of both detector and electronics capabilities and radiation hardness. In order to maintain...
متن کاملThe CMS experiment at the CERN LHC
The Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) detector is described. The detector operates at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN. It was conceived to study proton-proton (and leadlead) collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 14 TeV (5.5 TeV nucleon-nucleon) and at luminosities up to 1034 cm−2s−1 (1027 cm−2s−1). At the core of the CMS detector sits a high-magneticfield and large-bore superconducting sol...
متن کاملNear Future Upgrades for the CMS Pixel Detector
The silicon pixel detector is the innermost component of the CMS tracking system, providing high precision space point measurements of charged particle trajectories. The current pixel detector is designed to operate at a maximum luminosity of 1 × 1034cm−2s−1. Before 2018 the instantaneous luminosity of the LHC is expected to reach 2 × 1034cm−2s−1, which will significantly increase the number of...
متن کاملDevelopment of Trigger and Control Systems for CMS
During the year of 2007, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) and its four main detectors will begin operation with a view to answering the most pressing questions in particle physics. However before one can analyse the data produced to find the rare phenomena being looked for, both the detector and readout electronics must be thoroughly tested to ensure that the system will operate in a consistent ...
