The LHCb experiment is designed to fully exploit the large number of b hadrons expected at the LHC energy and luminosity. The experiment is equipped with particle identification devices and can efficiently trigger events with different B-meson final states, allowing systematic studies of CP violatio
## 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
LHCb is an experiment at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), dedicated to the study of b-hadron physics. The Vertex Locator (VELO) is a sub-detector which reconstructs primary and secondary vertices, which is of importance for the processes under study. It is a silicon micro-strip detector operated in
