The HL-LHC
Detector Upgrades for the HL-LHC
Right after the LHC commisioning in 2010, CERN approved the path to an upgrade of the accelerator complex that would provide a higher “useful luminosity” to the detectors.
The main challenges
Beam current and brightness
(number of protons in beam) New/better injectors
LIU (LHC Injector Upgrade)
Interaction point
Useful luminosity.
Reduce radiation damage on IP and keep pile-up under control.
For efficiency it is better to have a constant luminosity for a longer time.
Luminosity leveling.

The HL-LHC
A luminosity levelled @ 5×1034 cm-2s-1 , an integrated luminosity of 250 fb-1/year that will yield the expected 3000 fb-1 12 years after the upgrade.
Very high pile up: ~140
ATLAS and CMS upgraded
The LS3 schedule
Detector Upgrades for the HL-LHC
Despite the great progress in the HL-LHC project and the upgrades of ATLAS and CMS, delays have accumulated due to COVID-19 and technical challenges.
CERN very recently (Jan. 2022) decided to extend Run 3 by 1 year and LS3 by 6 months.
No further extensions of Run3 nor LS3 are possible, for technical and political reasons.
Current HL-LHC end date (2038) implies only 2500 fb-1 will be provided to ATLAS and CMS.
The goal of providing 3000 fb-1will not happen before 2041.
Final decision on the HL-LHC long term schedule
The upgrade of the detectors
Detector Upgrades for the HL-LHC
Alice and LHCb do not use the full luminosity provided by the machine.
ATLAS and CMS greedily consume it.
GOAL: keep similar performance in harsher environment than in the current detector
Increased Radiation levels and detector occupancy (higher granularity)
Tracking performance is critical.
Maintaining (even improve) physics sensitivity is very challenging for the trigger
