Abstract
The Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) is one of the two detectors proposed for th e Large Hadron Collider at CERN. Recently, the CMS Tracker Collaboration ha s finalized the design of the CMS inner tracking detector. After characteri zing the detector layout, we review the algorithms developed for track and vertex reconstruction. We discuss the reconstruction capability for several benchmark event topologies and assess the projected performance of the CMS tracking detector. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
