The LHCb VELO Upgrade Module Construction
K. Akiba, M. Alexander, C. Bertella +84
The LHCb detector has undergone a major upgrade for LHC Run 3. This Upgrade I detector facilitates operation at higher luminosity and utilises full-detector information at the LHC…
Measurement of thermal properties of the LHCb VELO detector using track-based software alignment
The LHCb VELO group
The thermal properties of the LHCb Vertex Locator (VELO) are studied using the real-time detector alignment procedure. The variation of the position and orientation of the detector…
Microchannel cooling for the LHCb VELO Upgrade I
Oscar Augusto De Aguiar Francisco, Wiktor Byczynski, Kazu Akiba +57
The LHCb VELO Upgrade I, currently being installed for the 2022 start of LHC Run 3, uses silicon microchannel coolers with internally circulating bi-phase \cotwo for thermal contro…
The Upgrade I of LHCb VELO -- towards an intelligent monitoring platform
P. Kopciewicz, T. Szumlak, M. Majewski +63
The Large Hadron Collider beauty (LHCb) detector is designed to detect decays of b- and c- hadrons for the study of CP violation and rare decays. At the end of the LHC Run 2, many…
Mapping the material in the LHCb vertex locator using secondary hadronic interactions
M. Alexander, W. Barter, A. Bay +63
Precise knowledge of the location of the material in the LHCb vertex locator (VELO) is essential to reducing background in searches for long-lived exotic particles, and in identify…
The Timepix Telescope for High Performance Particle Tracking
Kazuyoshi Akiba, Per Arne Ronning, Martin van Beuzekom +32
The Timepix particle tracking telescope has been developed as part of the LHCb VELO Upgrade project, supported by the Medipix Collaboration and the AIDA framework. It is a primary…
Radiation damage in the LHCb Vertex Locator
A. Affolder, K. Akiba, M. Alexander +48
The LHCb Vertex Locator (VELO) is a silicon strip detector designed to reconstruct charged particle trajectories and vertices produced at the LHCb interaction region. During the fi…
Charged Particle Tracking with the Timepix ASIC
Kazuyoshi Akiba, Marina Artuso, Ryan Badman +39
A prototype particle tracking telescope has been constructed using Timepix and Medipix ASIC hybrid pixel assemblies as the six sensing planes. Each telescope plane consisted of one…
The Upgraded D0 Detector
D0 Collaboration
The D0 experiment enjoyed a very successful data-collection run at the Fermilab Tevatron collider between 1992 and 1996. Since then, the detector has been upgraded to take advantag…
