The Inner Detector in the ATLAS experiment consisting of Pixel, SCT and TRT has been operated successfully with high performance in LHC Run 1 (2010 - 2012) and Run 2 (2015 - 2018). The LHC instantaneous luminosity of pp collisions has been increased during the operation and reached a maximal value of 2.2×1034 cm−2s−1 in 2017, more than twice of LHC design value (1.0×1034 cm−2s−1). Even with...
The Belle II experiment at the super KEK B factory (SuperKEKB) started its physics operation with the full detector setup in March 2019, and it aims at collecting 50ab−1 of e+e− collision data. The vertex detector of Belle II contains a 4-layer silicon vertex detector (SVD) using double sided silicon strips and an inner 2-layer pixel detector (PXD) that is based on the depleted P-channel Field...
In spring 2019 the Belle II experiment at the high luminosity SuperKEKB e+e− collider (KEK, Japan) has resumed operation after the installation of the new vertex detector. Two inner layers of DEPFET-based pixels (PXD) and four layers of double-sided silicon strip detectors (SVD) make up the vertex detector. In the first period of operation SuperKEKB has already reached the record luminosity of...
