The Belle II experiment at the SuperKEKB energy-asymmetric e$^+$e$^-$ collider has completed a series of substantial upgrades and started collecting data since Mar.2019. The designed peak luminosity is 8×10$^{35}$ cm$^{−2}$s$^{−1}$ and the experiment is expected to accumulate a data set of 50ab$^{-1}$ by 2027, to explore new physics beyond the Standard Model at the intensity frontier. The...
The Belle II experiment at the SuperKEKB collider of KEK (Japan) started recording physics data in spring 2019 with all its subdetectors installed and with the goal of accumulating ${50\;ab^{-1}}$ of ${e^+e^−}$ collision events at the unprecedented instantaneous luminosity of ${8 \times 10^{35}\;cm^{-2}s^{-1}}$, about 40 times larger than its predecessor. The Belle II vertex detector plays a...

The ALICE Inner Tracking System detector is undergoing a major upgrade in order to cope with the increased data rates and to meet the requirements as set out by the physics goals of the experiment after Long Shutdown 2. The new ITS will be completely made up of monolithic active pixel sensors based on a CMOS 180nm process. A single...
A new Silicon Tracker will be built for the Phase 2 Upgrade of the CMS experiment to fully exploit the increased luminosity delivered by HL-LHC. The innermost part, called the Inner Tracker, will be exposed to extreme conditions such as unprecedented radiation levels of 1.2 Grad and 2E16 neq/cm2 and hit rates of 3.2 GHz/cm2. The new Inner Tracker relies on many novel solutions and technologies...
