Abstract
LHCb is an experiment dedicated to the study of CP violation and other rare processes in the B mesons system at the LHC. In order to achieve these goals, the detector must not only provide a trigger system which is capable of triggering on both leptonic and hadronic final states, but also have a high track reconstruction efficiency, K − π separation capability over a wide momentum range, and an excellent proper time resolution. Recently, the detector has been reoptimized to reduce the material budget and to improve the trigger performance and robustness. The construction of the various detector components is well advancing and the experiment is expected to be ready for data taking at the start of the LHC operation.
