## For the LHCb Collaboration LHCb will study CP violation and other rare phenomena in B-decays with a forward spectrometer at the LHC. The LHCb trigger has to efficiently select a few Hz of interesting B-decays from a non-elastic pp interaction cross-section of 80 mb, which corresponds to 16 MHz

The Large Hadron Collider beauty experiment (LHCb) is a dedicated B physics experiment at the LHC. The trigger system is of crucial importance to discriminate the interesting B meson decays against the dominant background from inelastic pp-scattering. In this note, an overview of the LHCb trigger sy
The LHCb experiment is dedicated to the study of heavy flavour physics at the LHC machine. Its primary motivation is to study with high statistics and precision CP violation and rare B hadron decays, to improve the knowledge of the Standard Model or to get indirect hints of new physics contribution
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
