The LHCb RICH detector upgrade: Improvements and expected performance

LHCb is one of the main experiments running at the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC) and is specialized in heavy-flavour physics. One of its key detector components is the Ring-Imaging Cherenkov (RICH) system which has the crucial task of identifying charged particles over a wide momentum range. Duri...

description LHCb is one of the main experiments running at the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC) and is specialized in heavy-flavour physics. One of its key detector components is the Ring-Imaging Cherenkov (RICH) system which has the crucial task of identifying charged particles over a wide momentum range. During the Long Shutdown 2 of the LHC (2019–2022), the RICH detector has been undergoing a significant upgrade with the installation of new photodetectors, electronics and modified optics and mechanics. This will allow handling a higher luminosity and 40 MHz continuous data taking, expected for Run 3. The current status of the RICH upgrade will be reviewed starting from a summary of the major changes to the presentation of the expected improvements in detector performance.
