An overview of the ATLAS Fast Tracker processor is presented, reporting the design of the system, its expected performance, and the integration status.

From 2024, the HL-LHC will provide unprecedented pp luminosities to ATLAS, resulting in an additional integrated luminosity of around 2500 fb-1 over ten years. To withstand the much harsher radiation and occupancy conditions of the HL-LHC necessitates a complete replacement of the present ID. The new all-silicon tracker design is driven by the performance requirements that cannot be met by the...

device ( PXD ), a four-layer silicon strip detector ( SVD ) and the central drift chamber (

The High Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) is expected to deliver luminosities of 5x10^34 cm^2/s, with an average of about 140 overlapping proton-proton collisions per bunch crossing. These extreme pileup conditions place stringent requirements on the trigger system to be able to cope with the resulting event rates. A key component of the CMS upgrade for HL-LHC is a track trigger system which would...

In 2023, the LHC will be upgraded to the HL-LHC, increasing the luminosity to 5 x
10^34 cmâ2 sâ1. The increased luminosity will present new challenges in higher data

bandwidth readout system and high radiation tolerance for sensors and on-detector
ASICs. Several technologies for the upgrade sensors are being...

Designing trackers for future gamma-ray telescopes to operate in the MeV to GeV range requires making tradeoffs for optimizing the scientific performance. In particular, the choice of available detector technologies combined with the limited space and power available to space-based missions suggest that trade-offs between the collecting area, the field of view, and the spatial and spectral...

After a long shutdown, LHC is resuming operation with a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. In order to reach the target luminosity not only the collision frequency, but also the beam intensity will be higher than in Run 1. As a consequence, the average number of events underlying the signal events (pile-up) will rise from about 15 to about 25. The LHC collaborations have used the shutdown period...
