Description

LHCb is the dedicated flavour physics experiment at the LHC. An upgrade of this experiment is proposed to significantly enhance its potential for CP violation and rare decay studies. The operational luminosity of the LHCb experiment is limited by its trigger capabilities, occupancy and radiation damage issues. These issues will be addressed in the LHCb upgrade, with the aim of operating at instantaneous luminosities up to a factor ten higher than the design luminosity of the initial experiment
