Description
The LHC machine will be upgraded to increase its peak luminosity ( $5-7.5x10^{34} cm^{-2}s^{-1}$) and to possibly reach an integrated luminosity of $3000-4000\;$fb$^{-1}$, with an average number of pileup events of 140-200. The CMS experiment is called for an upgrade to keep up with the new challenges such as unprecedented radiation environment, bringing to high resilience needs, and increased number of events per bunch crossing, requiring higher detector granularity. Thus a completely new Inner Tracker will be installed: design choices for the Inner Tracker Phase-2 upgrade, highlighting R&D activities and technological approaches, will be presented.
