✦ Synopsis

The DZero silicon tracker is planned to be upgraded after 2005 to withstand the increased luminosity of the Tevatron collider. The new tracker will have 6 layers of single-sided silicon sensors read out with the radiation hard SVX4 chip. This contribution describes the design of the new tracker and some results of prototype testing.

This paper discusses the design, construction, and installation of the new open-cell drift chamber, the Central Outer Tracker (COT), for Run II operation at the Collider Detector at Fermilab. The COT improves upon the tracking performance of the Run I CTC drift chamber (e.g., increased stereo capabi

The HFT is the vertex-detector upgrade for the STAR experiment at RHIC. It is replacing the decommissioned silicon drift detector (SVT) with active pixel technology close to the beam pipe in order to increase by about an order of magnitude the track-pointing (DCA) resolution. This will allow direct
