Correlation and Possible Integration of Hardware Alignment Systems with the Software Tracker Alignment

The aim of the project is to investigate the correlation between the software alignment of the LHCb tracker and the integrated optical systems, as the Rasnik for the Outer Tracker. The aim is to understand if and how it is possible to integrate the two systems together to achieve better physics performances. In particular, mainly the alignment of the so-called outer tracker will be analysed in detail. The comparison of the two systems is performed for the first time by using 2017 data collected in June and July by the LHCb detector.
