The Vertex Locator (VELO) is the component of the LHCb experiment nearest to the interaction point. It is a silicon strip detector comprised of two retractable halves and during stable running the inner-most active silicon sits approximately 8 mm from the beams. Here we briefly describe the LHCb VEL

The Vertex Locator of the LHCb experiment has been used to fully reconstruct beam induced tracks at the LHC. A beam of protons was collided with a beam absorber during the LHC synchronisation test of the anti-clockwise beam on the weekend 22nd-24th August 2008. The resulting particles have been obse
