Description
The Outer Tracker (OT) of the CMS experiment provides information about the trajectory of charged particles produced in proton-proton collisions at the LHC. During the High Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) upgrade, scheduled for the late 2020s, the entire tracker will be replaced with new modules that will interface with the Level-1 Trigger for the first time ever at the LHC. Module production is distributed across several facilities around the world, necessitating coordinated standards of quality assessment and control. This poster focuses on the development of POTATO (Phase-II Outer Tracker Analyzer of Test Outputs), a C++ software which provides a standardized procedure for analyzing and grading test results of the new OT modules.
