The innermost layers of the CMS tracker are built out of pixel detectors arranged in three barrel layers (BPIX) and two forward disks in each endcap (FPIX). The original CMS detector was designed for the nominal instantaneous LHC luminosity of 1 x 10^34 cm^-2 s^-1. Under the conditions expected in the coming years, which will see an increase of a factor two of the instantaneous luminosity, the...

The Phase I upgrade of the CMS pixel detector is built out of four barrel layers (BPIX) and three forward disks in each endcap (FPIX). It comprises a total of 124M pixel channels, in 1,856 modules and it is designed to withstand instantaneous luminosities of up to 2 x 10^34 cm^-2 s^-1. Different parts of the detector have been assembled over the last year and later brought to CERN for...

Run-2 of the LHC is providing new challenges to track and vertex reconstruction imposed by the higher collision energy, pileup and luminosity that are being delivered. The ATLAS tracking performance relies critically on the Pixel Detector, therefore, in view of Run-2 of LHC, the ATLAS experiment has constructed the first 4-layer Pixel detector in HEP, installing a new Pixel layer, also called...

Run-2 of the LHC has provided new challenges to track and vertex reconstruction with higher centre-of-mass
energies and luminosity leading to increasingly high-multiplicity environments, boosted, and highly-collimated
physics objects. To achieve this goal, ATLAS is equipped with the Inner Detector tracking system built using
different technologies, silicon planar sensors (pixel and...

The primary goal of the LHCb experiment at the LHC is to search for indirect
evidence of new physics via measurements of CP violation and rare decays of
beauty and charm hadrons. The LHCb detector is a single-arm forward spectrometer with precise silicon-strip detectors in the regions with
highest particle occupancies. Around the interaction region, the VErtex LOcator (VELO) has active...
