Triple-GEM detectors for the Phase-2 upgrade of the CMS muon spectrometer

Instrumentation and Detectors 2023-12-08 v1 High Energy Physics - Experiment

Abstract

The High-Luminosity LHC will deliver an unprecedented instantaneous luminosity, requiring all experiments to upgrade their detectors to sustain the higher background rates. The upgrade of the CMS Muon spectrometer includes three stations of triple-GEM detectors. We present the status of the commissioning and performance validation of the three GEM stations: GE1/1, which is taking data in Run 3, GE2/1, for which the first detectors will be installed in 2024, and ME0, which has undergone several performance studies for high-rate and longevity and will start its mass production in 2024.
