The upgrade and performance of the LHCb RICH detector
The LHCb experiment at CERN studies b and c hadrons decays in the forward region. Many physics analyses in LHCb rely on the Ring Imaging Cherenkov (RICH) detector for the charged-hadron identification in a wide momentum range.

description | The LHCb experiment at CERN studies b and c hadrons decays
in the forward region. Many physics analyses in LHCb rely on the Ring Imaging
Cherenkov (RICH) detector for the charged-hadron identification in a wide momentum
range. The RICH detector is currently undergoing a substantial upgrade: an
improved optics and multi-anode photomultipliers, coupled with new readout electronics,
will deal with the expected five-fold increase of luminosity in RUN 3, starting
in 2021. Upgrade activities will be presented, including hardware characterization
and expected improvements in the detector performance. |
