The current CMS silicon tracker consists of two tracking devices: the inner pixel and the outer strip detectors. The tracker occupies the region around the center of CMS, where the LHC beams collide, and therefore, operates in a high-occupancy and high-radiation environment produced by the particle collisions within the LHC tunnel.
This article provides an overview of the excellent performance of the CMS silicon tracker during the ongoing Run 3 data-taking period. It discusses the behavior of local observables, such as hit reconstruction efficiency, their response to the accumulated integrated luminosity, and the precision achieved in aligning the detector components.
