In the upcoming years, with the upgrade of the LHC to higher luminosities, CMS will be subject to an increasing flux of particles, especially in its most forward region, at | $ \eta $ | > 1.6. To consolidate the muon spectrometer of CMS and increase redundancy, the CMS GEM collaboration proposes to instrument the 1.6 < | $ \eta $ | < 2.1 region, originally foreseen to be equipped...

In the upcoming years, with the upgrades of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) to higher luminosities, the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) will be subject to increasing fluxes of particles, especially in the detectors closer to the beam pipe. To consolidate the muon spectrometer of CMS and increase redundancy, the CMS GEM collaboration proposes to instrument the muon forward regions with Triple-Gas...

This report describes both the technical design and the expected performance of the Phase-II upgrade, using Gas Electron Multiplier (GEM) detectors, of the first endcap station of the CMS muon system. The upgrade is targeted for the second long shutdown of the CERN LHC and is designed to improve the muon trigger and tracking performance at high luminosity. The GEM detectors will add redundancy to...
