The CMS SST
|

|
|
instruments the radial range between 20~cm and 116~cm and $|\eta| < 2.5$ around the
|
5 |
|
|
LHC interaction point.
|

|
|
The central region ($|z| < 118$ cm

|
|
\footnote{A CMS coordinate system, used through this note, is defined in such a way that
|
8 |
|
|
$z$ is the coordinate along the LHC beam axis, $y$ is the vertical direction and $x$
|

|
|
complete the system; the origin being the nominal beam interaction point.})
|

|
|
is split into an Inner Barrel (TIB), made of four detector layers, and an
|
11 |
|
|
Outer Barrel (TOB), made of six detector layers. The TIB is shorter than the TOB, and is
|
12 |
|
|
complemented
|
13 |
|
|
by three Inner Disks per side (TID), each Disk being in turn composed of three
|
14 |
|
|
Rings. The forward and backward regions
|
15 |
|
|
(124~cm $ < |z| < $282~cm) are covered by nine Endcap (TEC) disks per side, each one made of
|
16 |
|
|
up to seven rings.
|
17 |
|
|
The two innermost layers of both TIB and TOB as well as rings number one, two and five
|
18 |
|
|
of TEC and one and two of TID are instrumented with double-sided detector modules.

The whole tracker region is embedded into the CMS 4~Tesla solenoidal magnetic field.
|
32 |
|
|
Charged particle transverse momentum resolution of about 1.5\% for centrally-produced
|
33 |
|
|
muon of 100~GeV/$c$ is expected~\cite{ref:ptdr}. \\
|
34 |
|
|
From the detector construction point of view it is important to note that the TIB/TID
|
35 |
|
|
system is divided into two physically separated structures: TIB/TID+, which is located in the
|
36 |
|
|
$|z| > 0$ region and TIB/TID-, located in the $|z| < 0$.\\
|
37 |
|
|
The entire tracker is inserted in a carbon fiber Support Tube which is attached to
|
38 |
|
|
the Electromagnetic Calorimeter and insulated by the rest of the experiment by a
|
39 |
|
|
'Thermal Shield'.
