TL;DR: The L3 experiment as discussed by the authors is one of the six large detectors designed for the new generation of electron-positron accelerators, which is the only detector that concentrates its efforts on limited goals of measuring electrons, muons and photons.

TL;DR: In this article, the design and construction of the silicon strip microvertex detector (SMD) of the L3 experiment at LEP are described and the sensors, readout electronics, data acquisition system, mechanical assembly and support, displacement monitoring systems and radiation monitoring system of the recently installed double-sided, double-layered SMD.

TL;DR: The forward-backward muon detector of the L3 experiment is presented in this paper, which consists of 96 self-calibrating drift chambers of a new design enclosing the magnet pole pieces of the l3 solenoid.

TL;DR: The L3 central tracking detector has been in operation since the start-up of LEP (Large Electron Positron collider) in 1989 as mentioned in this paper, and consists of a Time Expansion Chamber (TEC), a layer of Plastic Scintillating Fibers and a Z-chamber.
