Description

The status of the Muon System of the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) is presented in this paper. First, the design parameters for the spectrometer are quoted. Then, a brief description of each detection technology (Drift Tubes in the barrel region, Cathode Strip Chambers in the endcaps and Resistive Plate Chambers both in barrel and endcaps) precedes an update of its current status. A short term forecast of the expected dates of completion is given
