چکیده

LHCb is a dedicated b-physics experiment at the future LHC collider. Its construction has started and it will be ready to take data from the start of LHC operation, scheduled in 2007, and directly at its full physics potential. LHCb will benefit from an unprecedented source of b-hadrons, provided by LHC, to improve substantially precision measurements of CP violation parameters in many different and complementary channels. The detector provides good particle identification, vertexing and has an efficient and flexible trigger. Its status and expected performance are reviewed.

LHCb status and early physics prospects

— LHCb is a dedicated detector for b and c physics at the LHC. I will present a concise review of the detector design and expected performance together with some first results on the commissioning of the different sub-systems based on cosmic data and particle beams delivered by the LHC during the summer of 2008. The experiment is ready to exploit first data expected from the LHC. An integrated ...

LHCb Level-0 Trigger Detectors

The calorimeter and muon systems are essential components to provide a trigger for the LHCb experiment. The calorimeter system comprises a scintillating pad detector and pre-shower, followed by electromagnetic and hadronic calorimeters. The calorimeter system allows photons, electrons and hadrons to be identified, and their energy to bemeasured. Themuon system consists of five measuring station...

Tracking and Alignment Performance of the LHCb silicon detectors

The LHCb experiment is primarily dedicated to the study of new physics through the heavy flavour decays. The tracking system of LHCb is composed of a silicon micro-strip vertex detector, two silicon strip tracker detectors and a set of straw-tube drift chambers in front of and behind a dipole generating a magnetic field. This system provides precise measure of the vertex position and high momen...
