Description
In spring 2019 the Belle II experiment at the high luminosity SuperKEKB e+e− collider (KEK, Japan) has resumed operation after the installation of the new vertex detector. Two inner layers of DEPFET-based pixels (PXD) and four layers of double-sided silicon strip detectors (SVD) make up the vertex detector. In the first period of operation SuperKEKB has already reached the record luminosity of 2.4×1034cm−2s−1, which will be increased by about a factor 30 in the coming years.
