Abstract
The Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) detector is described. The detector operates at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN. It was conceived to study proton-proton (and lead-lead) collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 14 TeV (5.5 TeV nucleon-nucleon) and at luminosities up to 10^(34) cm^(−2) s^(−1) (10^(27) cm^(−2) s^(−1)). At the core of the CMS detector sits a high-magnetic-field and large-bore superconducting solenoid surrounding an all-silicon pixel and strip tracker, a lead-tungstate scintillating-crystals electromagnetic calorimeter, and a brass-scintillator sampling hadron calorimeter. The iron yoke of the flux-return is instrumented with four stations of muon detectors covering most of the 4π solid angle. Forward sampling calorimeters extend the pseudorapidity coverage to high values (|η| ≤ 5) assuring very good hermeticity. The overall dimensions of the CMS detector are a length of 21.6 m, a diameter of 14.6 m and a total weight of 12500 t.

The design, construction, installation and commissioning of CMS would have been impossible without the devoted efforts of our numerous technical colleagues from the CERN departments and from all the CMS Institutes. The cost of the detectors, computing infrastructure, data acquisition and all other systems without which CMS would not be able to operate, was generously supported by the financing agencies involved in the experiment.
