Description

The LHCb experiment has the unique capability to operate as both a collider experiment and a fixed-target experiment. This talk will discuss what was learned from the first phase of the fixed-target program at LHC and what can be expected from the upgraded system, which will begin providing high-statistics fixed target data when the LHC resumes operation.
