The main subsystems of the CMS Silicon Strip Tracker were assembled together in a dedicated large clean room at CERN prior to their installation in the CMS collision hall. Following the integration of the Tracker a long commissioning period took place, during which up to 15% of the silicon modules w

The CMS Silicon Strip Tracker is the largest tracking system made of silicon devices ever built for a High Energy Physics experiment. Such a complex detector required a long time for the production and qualification of each component and a system test to verify that the expected performance is achie
Inelastic nuclear collisions of hadrons incident on silicon sensors can generate secondary highly ionising particles (HIPs) and deposit as much energy within the sensor bulk as several hundred minimum ionising particles. The large signals generated by these 'HIP events' can momentarily saturate the
