The LHC RF clock is transmitted over kilometres of fibre to the experiments
where it is distributed to thousands of front-end electronics boards. In order to
ensure that the detector signals are sampled properly, its long-term stability
with respect to the bunch arrival times must be monitored with a precision of
<100ps. In addition it is important to monitor the LHC bunch structure...

A proposal for a pixel based Level-1 trigger for the Super-LHC is presented.
The trigger is based on fast track reconstruction using the full pixel granularity
exploiting a readout which connects different layers in specific trigger towers. The
trigger will implement the current CMS High Level Trigger functionality using
dedicated ASIC and FPGA, in a novel concept of intelligent detector....

We report on recent work on the design of a pixel detector for CMS at the Super-LHC.
This work builds on previous studies on a tracking detector capable of providing
track stubs to be used in the Level-1. We now focus on the use of two layers of
tracking, each comprising stacks of pixel sensors with 20x50x10μm3 pitch (θxφxr) and
separated by a few millimetres. Preliminary work on track...
