Description

Abstract for Allpix2

During long shutdown 4 of the LHC, there will be an upgrade to the LHCb tracking systems to allow the experiment to operate at higher luminosities ($1.5\times10^{34}cm^{−2}s^{−1}$). The downstream tracker, known as the Mighty Tracker, is made up of two different detection mediums: scintillating fibres and monolithic CMOS sensors called MightyPix. The MightyPix design is based on knowledge from the ATLASPix1 and the MuPix2. A key specification of the MightyPix is to have a timing resolution $\sim 3 - 4 ns$. Allpix2 simulations are proposed to determine if this timing resolution is achievable or if additional timestamps are required. This talk will outline the plans for this study.

Will the talk be given in person or remotely? In person
