TL;DR
The LHCb upgrade aims to enhance the detector's capabilities by enabling full-rate readout and software-based event selection, significantly increasing event yields for flavor physics research at the LHC.
Contribution
This paper details the planned detector upgrade, including full collision rate readout and software trigger implementation, to improve data collection for flavor physics.
Findings
Preparation for detector installation in 2018
Projected tenfold increase in muonic event yields
Projected twentyfold increase in hadronic event yields
Abstract
The LHCb Experiment is preparing a detector upgrade fully exploit the flavour physics potential of the LHC. The whole detector will be read out at the full collision rate and the online event selection will be performed by a software trigger. This will increase the event yields by a facto 10 for muonic and a factor 20 for hadronic final states. Research towards the upgrade has started with the target to install the detector in 2018.
