Design and construction of the Outer Tracker for the CMS Phase-2 Upgrade / Zoi, Irene (Fermilab) /CMS Collaboration
The High-Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) is expected to deliver an integrated luminosity of 3000--4000~fb11 over 10 years of operation with the peak instantaneous luminosity reaching about \mbox{5--7.5×1034×1034cm22\,s11}. During Long Shutdown 3, several components of the CMS detector will undergo major improvements, called Phase-2 upgrades, to be able to operate in the challenging environment of the HL-LHC. [...]

Beam test characterization of an irradiated pixel-strip module for the HL-LHC CMS tracker upgrade. / Sohail, Iqra (Quaid-i-Azam U.) /CMS Collaboration
\begin{abstract} A new tracker for the CMS detector at the Large Hadron Collider will be built to address the demands of the High Luminosity upgrade, which aims to achieve peak instantaneous luminosities from 5 up to 7.5×1034cm2s17.5×1034cm2s1 and an integrated luminosity of 3000--4000 fb1fb1 at a center of mass energy of 14 TeV. To meet the resulting challenges, the CMS experiment is changing its outer tracker silicon modules to include tracking capabilities at the Level-1 trigger [...]

CMS Inner Tracker Upgrade for the HL-LHC Design, Development, and Production Status / Kuo, Chin-chia (Hamburg U.) /CMS Collaboration
The High Luminosity Large Hadron Collider operation will push the CMS experiment to its limits, with an instantaneous peak luminosity of 7.5×1034cm2s17.5×1034cm2s1 and an integrated luminosity of 300fb1300fb1 per year. This environment will expose the CMS Inner Tracker (IT) pixel detector at the center of CMS to unprecedented levels of radiation, with a 1 MeV neutron equivalent fluence of Φeq=2.6×1016cm2Φeq=2.6×1016cm2 and a total ionizing dose of 13MGy13MGy after 3000fb13000fb1 of integrated luminosity.

CMS FlashSim end-to-end simulation with ML / Rizzi, Andrea (INFN, Pisa ; Pisa U.) /CMS Collaboration
Detailed event simulation at the LHC is taking a large fraction of computing budget.CMS developed an end-to-end ML based simulation that can speed up the time for production of analysis samples of several orders of magnitude with a limited loss of accuracy. As the CMS experiment is adopting a common analysis level format, the NANOAOD, for a larger number of analyses, such an event representation is used as the target of this ultra fast simulation that we call FlashSim.
