Abstract Since the initial data taking of CERN LHC, CMS experiment has undergone substantial upgrades and improvements. This paper discusses detector as it is configured for third data-taking period Run 3, which started in 2022. The entire silicon pixel tracking was replaced. A new powering system superconducting solenoid installed. electronics hadron calorimeter upgraded. All muon electronic systems were upgraded, stations added, including a gas electron multiplier detector. precision...
