Abstract
After its installation in the CMS experiment, the CMS silicon tracker has been commissioned, calibrated and aligned based on several million reconstructed tracks, recorded during extended cosmic ray data-taking in 2008 and 2009. The collision data at 900 GeV and 2.36 TeV which were recorded by the CMS experiment in December 2009 allowed to repeat the calibration measurements and derive compatible results. Calibration results are shown for the silicon strip detector only, whereas alignment and tracking performance are given for the complete CMS tracker, including the silicon pixel system.
