First results from the LHCb vertex locator
The Vertex Locator (VELO) is the component of the LHCb experiment nearest to the interaction point. It is a silicon strip detector comprised of two retractable halves and during stable running the inner-most active silicon sits approximately 8 mm from the beams. Here we briefly describe the LHCb VEL...

description | The Vertex Locator (VELO) is the component of the LHCb experiment nearest to the interaction point. It is a silicon strip detector comprised of two retractable halves and during stable running the inner-most active silicon sits approximately 8 mm from the beams. Here we briefly describe the LHCb VELO and present early performance results with data taken in the first half of 2010. |
