Initial configuration of the muon spectrometer with its four chamber sub-systems: the precision-measurement tracking chambers (MDT's and CSC's) and the trigger chambers (RPC's and TGC's). In the end-cap, the first TGC layer (I) is located in front of the innermost tracking layer; the next three layers stand in front (M1) and behind (M2 and M3) the second MDT wheel. The first letter (B and E) of the MDT naming scheme refers to barrel and end-cap chambers, respectively. The second and third letters refer to layer (inner, middle, and outer) and sector (large and small) types, respectively. |

In contrast, A23+10 represents a point on side A at the same longitudinal distance from the interaction point, but at a distance of 10m radially towards the centre of the LHC ring.

For muons with pT=100GeV, expected fractional momentum resolution as a function of abs eta for stand-alone and combined reconstruction. The degradation in the region with 1.1<abs eta<1.7 is due to the absence of the middle muon stations in the barrel/end-cap transition region for the initial data-taking, to the low bending power of the magnetic field in the transition region between the barrel and end-cap toroids and to the material of the coils of the end-cap toroids. |
