The LHCb detector is currently being installed at the large hadron collider at CERN and is foreseen to start operating in 2007. It is designed to perform high-precision measurements of CP violation and rare decays of B hadrons. The silicon tracker is part of the LHCb tracking system. It consists of
The LHCb Silicon Tracker is a silicon micro-strip detector with a sensitive area of 12 m 2 and a total of 272k readout channels. The Silicon Tracker consists of two parts that use different detector modules. The detector installation was completed by early summer 2008 and the commissioning without b
