Track Based Alignment in CMS

Instrumentation and Detectors 2007-09-24 v1

Abstract

The strategy for track based alignment of the CMS tracking and muon detectors is presented. After an overview over the used data samples, the general alignment strategy is presented, with a focus of the procedures envisaged at the start of data taking in 2008. The three currently used alignment algorithms are discussed and first results on their application to the CMS tracker are presented, as well as studies on the alignment of the Muon detector with tracks.
