Performance of the CMS tracking detectors from the 2009 LHC run
Abstract
The 2009 run provided the first proton-proton collisions from the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at center of mass energies of 900 GeV and 2.36 TeV. The Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) experiment has recorded a large sample of minimum bias events from these collisions. We present results from the all silicon tracking detectors from this run. The performance of the tracker and track reconstruction algorithms are considered including signal-to-noise, efficiencies and comparisons to simulation for track parameter and resonance reconstruction performance.
