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).

TL;DR: In this article, a prototype particle tracking telescope was constructed using Timepix and Medipix ASIC hybrid pixel assemblies as the six sensing planes Each telescope plane consisted of one 14 cm2 assembly, providing a 256 ×256 array of 55μm square pixels The telescope achieved a pointing resolution of 24μm at the position of the device under test.

TL;DR: The CODEX-b long-lived particle (LLP) detector as discussed by the authors was designed to operate during Run 3 of the LHC and provides a detailed survey of both minimal and complete models featuring LLPs.

TL;DR: In this paper, the physics case and ancillary studies for the proposed CODEX-b long-lived particle (LLP) detector, as well as for a smaller proof-of-concept demonstrator detector, CODEx-β, to be operated during Run-3 of the LHC are presented.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present the first results of microchannel prototypes with circulating, two-phase CO2 and compare them to simulations and discuss a practical design of upgraded VELO detector for the LHCb experiment employing this approach.
