Material Budget Calculation for the LHCb TT Station

An updated calculation of the material budget of the TT station is presented. For $eta < 4.2$ the amount of material is found to be similar to that assumed in the current LHCb Monte Carlo. For $eta > 4.2$ a significant increase in the amount of material is found. This is due to the insulating...

Sumario:An updated calculation of the material budget of the TT station is presented. For $eta < 4.2$ the amount of material is found to be similar to that assumed in the current LHCb Monte Carlo. For $eta > 4.2$ a significant increase in the amount of material is found. This is due to the insulating `jacket' around the beam-pipe which was not adequately taken into account in the previous calculations.
