Abstract
At the CDF particle physics detector, the precision tracking and vertexing is performed by the silicon detector. It is a 722,432 channel device with ap7 m2 of silicon sensors. It continues to operate well and is used in routine data taking. However this detector operates in the harsh radiation environment of the Tevatron proton-antiproton collider. The effects of long term radiation damage will ultimately determine its lifetime. This paper describes the measurements to monitor the radiation damage and projections of its lifetime.
