 Motivation of the CMS Muon System Upgrade with Triple-GEM detectors / Radogna, Raffaella (INFN, Bari ; Bari U.) The CMS collaboration considers upgrading the muon detector in the forward region using a technology of Gas Electron Multiplier (GEM) chambers, which are able to handle the extreme particle rates expected in this region along with a high spatial resolution. This allows to improve tracking and triggering capabilities, resulting in a lower trigger threshold along with redundant muon identification. [...] CMS-CR-2014-349.- Geneva : CERN, 2014 - 4 p.

 Large-size triple GEM detectors for the CMS forward muon upgrade / Calabria, Cesare (INFN, Bari ; Bari U.) The CMS collaboration considers upgrading the muon forward region which is particularly affected by the high-luminosity conditions at the LHC. The proposal involves Gas Electron Multiplier (GEM) chambers, which are able to handle the extreme particle rates expected in this region along with a high spatial resolution.

 Prospects for Higgs physics with an upgraded CMS detector at the high-luminosity LHC / Zenz, Seth (Imperial Coll., London) /CMS Collaboration A high-luminosity running period is planned for the LHC, in which up to 3000 fb\textsuperscript{-1} of integrated luminosity to be collected, enabling many Higgs properties to be measured at high precision. Projections are given for the expected performance of an upgraded CMS detector for various Higgs property measurements, including modified couplings, rare decays, and spin-parity.
