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…
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…
Temporal characterisation of silicon sensors on Timepix3 ASICs
Elena Dall'Occo, Kazu Akiba, Martin van Beuzekom +8
The timing performance of silicon sensors bump-bonded to Timepix3 ASICs is investigated, prior to and after different types of irradiation up to $8 \times 10^{15} 1 \mathrm{\,Me\ke…
Charge collection properties of prototype sensors for the LHCb VELO upgrade
R. Geertsema, K. Akiba, M. van Beuzekom +20
An extensive sensor testing campaign is presented, dedicated to measuring the charge collection properties of prototype candidates for the Vertex Locator (VELO) detector for the up…
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…
LHCb VELO Timepix3 Telescope
Kazu Akiba, Martin van Beuzekom, Henk Boterenbrood +30
The LHCb VELO Timepix3 telescope is a silicon pixel tracking system constructed initially to evaluate the performance of LHCb VELO Upgrade prototypes. The telesope consists of eigh…
