Descripción
Sumario:The LHCb Experiment at CERN's Large Hadron Collider LHC is a dedicated B physics experiment that is set up as a single-arm magnetic spectrometer. To fully exploit the physics potential of the experiment, a good tracking performance with high efficiency in the high particle density environment close to the beam pipe is required. Silicon strip detectors with large readout pitch and long strips will therefore be used as part of the LHCb tracking system. We will present the design and the production status of this detector, the LHCb Silicon Tracker.
