Sumario: | The CMS muon system has played a key role for many physics results obtained from the LHC Run-1 and Run-2 data. It presently consists of three detector technologies equipping different regions of the spectrometer. Drift Tube chambers (DT) are installed in the CMS muon system barrel, while Cathode Strip Chambers (CSC) cover the CMS end-caps; both serve as tracking and triggering detectors. Moreover, Resistive Plate Chambers (RPC) complement DT and CSC in barrel and end-caps respectively and are mostly used in the trigger.Finally, Gas Electron Multiplier (GEM) chambers are going to be installed in the muon spectrometer endcaps at different stages of the CMS upgrade programme. A slice test consisting of 10 GEM chambers is being presently operated in parallel to the rest of the muon spectrometer. The performance of the different muon detectors and the muon trigger, evaluated using data collected at 13 TeV centre-of-mass energy during the LHC Run2, will be presented in this report in all of its aspects. |
