Abstract
AbstractThe chapter gives an overview of particle detectors, with the emphasis on tracking detectors. The working principles and the calibration of gaseous, semiconductor, and fiber detectors are explained, followed by a brief review of detector alignment. As an illustration, the tracking systems of the four experiments at the LHC and two non-LHC experiments, Belle II and CBM, are presented.
