The Inner Tracker detector description and its implementation in the XML database

The LHCb Inner Tracker has undergone many changes with respect to its original design. Furthermore its software description used to generate Monte Carlo samples before 2006 was rather simplified and not realistic enough. Therefore, a new detector description in Geant4 was needed.

description The LHCb Inner Tracker has undergone many changes with respect to its original design. Furthermore its software description used to generate Monte Carlo samples before 2006 was rather simplified and not realistic enough. Therefore, a new detector description in Geant4 was needed. In this note the updated design will be described as well as its implementation in the software. Finally, the thickness of the Inner Tracker in terms of radiation length will be estimated.
