The use of aerogel as a radiator in the RICH detectors of LHCb is a challenge due to the hot environment of the hadron collider LHC. Large size tiles of silica aerogel were recently produced with unprecedented optical quality for such dimensions. [...]

The High Voltage Protection Boards for the RICH detectors of LHCb

We present the circuit protection system for the monitoring of the High Voltage bias for the Hybrid Photon Detectors (HPDs), of the Ring Imaging Cherenkov (RICH) detectors of LHCb. The protection system buffers the voltage lines, attenuated by about 12700 V/V, in normal operating conditions and limits the output voltage excursion to the ADC monitoring system to a safe range (between -2.5 V and +5 V) in case of discharge.

Measurement of $\sigma (pp \to b\overline{b}X)$ at $\sqrt{s}$=7 TeV in the forward region
/ LHCb Collaboration
Decays of b hadrons into final states containing a D0 meson and a muon are used to measure the b anti-b production cross-section in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV at the LHC. In the pseudorapidity interval 2 < eta < 6 and integrated over all transverse momenta we find that the average cross-section to produce b-flavoured or anti-b-flavoured hadrons is (75.3 +/- 5.4 +/- 13.0) microbarns..
