  • Abstract
    The CDF Run II silicon detector is a 722,432 channel system designed to perform precision tracking and vertex measurements. After a challenging commissioning period, this detector is now used in regular data taking, recording 1 fb−1 of data over the last four years. A summary of the problems encountered during commissioning is given as well as experiences of maintaining and operating such a large, complex detector. A comment on the longevity of the silicon detector is also given.
