The LHCb detector at the LHC

A. A. Alves, +889 more
TL;DR: The LHCb experiment is dedicated to precision measurements of CP violation and rare decays of B hadrons at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN (Geneva).
Journal ArticleDOI

Performance study of new pixel hybrid photon detector prototypes for the LHCb RICH counters

TL;DR: In this article, a pixel hybrid photon detector (HPD) was developed according to the specific requirements of the LHCb ring imaging Cherenkov counters, which achieved a fast 25ns readout and a high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR).
Journal ArticleDOI

VUV Absorbing Vapours in n-Perfluorocarbons.

TL;DR: In this article, the main photon absorbers in perfluorocarbons are hydrocarbons with double or triple bonds, and a process which can eliminate these pollutants and restore the intrinsic excellent optical transparency of these fluids in the VUV range is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

First operation of a hybrid photon detector prototype with electrostatic cross-focussing and integrated silicon pixel readout

TL;DR: In this article, the first operation of a hybrid photon detector prototype with integrated silicon pixel readout for the ring imaging Cherenkov detectors of the LHCb experiment is reported, based on a cross-focussed image intensifier tube geometry where the image is de-magnified by a factor of 4.
