The tracking and vertexing performance of the ATLAS detector relies critically on the silicon and gaseous tracking subsystems that form the ATLAS Inner Detector. They have been operated successfully with high performance in LHC since Run 1 (2010) up to the current date. Those subsystems have undergone significant upgrades to meet the challenges imposed by the higher pileup and luminosity,...
The innermost tracking system of the CMS experiment consists of two tracking devices: the Silicon Pixel and Silicon Strip detectors. The tracker was specifically designed to very accurately determine the trajectory of charged particles or tracks, enabling precise reconstruction of primary and secondary vertices, as well as momentum measurements, in the high-luminosity environment of the LHC....
ALICE ITS2: Performance and Operational Experience
The ALICE Inner Tracking System (ITS) is the innermost tracking detector at the ALICE experiment, providing vertex reconstruction and tracking of charged particles.
The upgraded version, referred to as ITS2 and currently operating in ALICE, consists of seven cylindrical layers of Monolithic Active Pixel Sensors (MAPS) covering 10 m$^{2}$...
Since 2019, the Belle II experiment at the SuperKEKB ($B$-factory) in Tsukuba, Japan has been collecting data from asymmetric-energy $e^-e^+$ collisions at the $\Upsilon({4S})$ resonance. It holds the world luminosity record of $5.1 \times 10^{34}\ \mathrm{cm}^{-2}\ \mathrm{s}^{-1}$ recorded in 2024, with the goal of collecting a data set 50 times larger than the predecessor experiments Belle...
The sPHENIX detector at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider is the newest experiment at a hadron collider since the switch on of the LHC. It completed its commissioning in October 2024 and is dedicated to precision probes of Quark-Gluon Plasma. To achieve this goal, sPHENIX utilises a monolithic active pixel vertex detector (MVTX). This detector enables precision measurements of beauty and...
