This report documents the knowledge and experiences gained by the LHC experiments in running vertex and tracker detector systems in extreme radiation environments and concludes a series of workshops held at CERN. By the time of the workshops, the last one held on February 2019, the LHC machine had delivered a large fraction of the design luminosity to the experiments and the deleterious effects of radiation on detector performance and operation were being observed and measured. It was timely to review the situation across the LHC experiments and answer questions such as:
- Are the detector systems operating and performing as expected?
- How reliable are the radiation damage models and predictions?
- How accurate are the Monte Carlo simulation codes?
