摘要
The Muon Spectrometer of the CMS experiment is designed to perform precise muon identification, and to measure transverse momentum of crossing particles with high resolution. It provides trigger capabilities and is used, together with the tracking system, in the offiine reconstruction, improving overall PT measurement performance for events with high PT muons. It consists of different kind of gaseous detectors: Cathode Strip Chambers (CSC) equip the endcaps of the CMS detector, whereas Drift Tubes (DT) cover the barrel region. In addition, a set of Resistive Plate Chambers (RPC) complement the former two, both in barrel and endcaps, providing redundancy to the muon trigger. The Muon System has operated remarkably well during the data-taking periods with LHC colliding beams, both in 2010 and 2011. The overall trigger and detector performance of the Muon System during collision data-taking will be presented, focusing on how this has met design requirements and expectations.
