Description
Precision measurements of the properties of the Higgs
boson, discovered by the ATLAS and CMS experiments of the LHC,
and the top quark, the heaviest known elementary particle, are
among the main physics goals for experiments at the proposed
international linear collider (ILC). These measurements must reach
an unprecedented level of precision in order to allow us to decipher
the next fundamental layer of physics, called new physics. The vertex
and tacking detectors of the ILC experiments will be a key towards
accomplishing the ambitious physics programs of the latter. We
discuss the design requirements of these state-of-the-art detector
systems, driven by stringent physics and experimental constraints
of the ILC.
