Why upgrade? Or, Why Should We Fully Exploit LHCb b production? There are hints of NP being just around the corner. If they are confirmed by LHCb e. g. in Bs→J/yf then the path forward is clear and the precision measurements must be pursued If ATLAS/CMS discover NP, but the effects are more subtle in the flavour sector then we will need precise measurements to test predictions Pursue channels statistically limited at current experiment e. g. Bs→ff Keep pace with theoretical predictions which will improve with time e. g. indirect precision on g 2010: sg ~ 5 o >2015: sg ~ factor 5 better thanks to significant improvements from lattice QCD? ar.

Pushing the Precision Frontier fs=-0. 036 0. 002 rad one of the most precisely predicted CPV quantities in the standard model If NP in the Bs sector turns out to be large, then LHCb upgrade will be needed If it turns out to be small (as appears to be the case in the Bd sector) then precise measurement is needed to match clean prediction s LHCb (J/y f ) Upgrade (J/y f ) SM 0. 01 ~0. 003 0. 002 LHCb numbers are with J/y f alone Precision will be even better with other channels e. g. J/y fo(pp) Direct proportionality to η leads to interesting constraint on UT 09/09/09 LHCb Upgrade – P Collins Beauty 09, Heidelberg LHCb precision, 10 fb-1 6
b→s penguins, a very promising place for NP to lurk Bs 0→ff dominated by penguins: NP can enter in mixing box and/or in penguins CP violating asymmetry is zero, due to cancellation of mixing and decay phases At upgrade 0. 6 M events and error of 0. 01 Can be complemented by B 0→f. Ks 0 and family: At the upgrade we expect 20000 events and a precision of 0. 02 09/09/09 LHCb Upgrade – P Collins Beauty 09, Heidelberg Intriguing pattern emerging, but existing precision poor LHCb and upgrade will clarify this picture 7
Bs →mm and Bd →mm – an exciting future SM prediction is precise, and small! Blanke et al, JHEP 0610: 003, 2006 This can be reached with 10 fb-1 at LHCb. If NP gives significant enhancements then will be seen sooner! However: Certain models, e. g. MCPVMFV, can give enhancements but can also suppress the branching ration < SM depending on phases Need more statistics than available at baseline LHCb 10 fb-1 to approach SM 10% precision Rate of (Bd/Bs)→mm tightly constrained and can distinguish SM and MFV (Buras: hep-ph/060405).

To extend the physics programme, why not just turn up L? LHC is (will be) capable of delivering to LHCb ~50% of the L delivered to the GPDs – would be more than good enough! Baseline scenario: increase our luminosity from 2. 1032 to 2 x 1033 cm-2 s-1 Crossings with ≥ 1 interaction 10 MHz → 30 MHz Average number of interactions per crossing 1. 2 → 4. 8 Spillover: increases linearly with L Compatible with SLHC Ihigh x Ilow scenario BUT, it’s all about the trigger! n n Level-0: Largest ET hadron, e(g) and m 1 MHz read-out rate is currently the bottle neck in the system n m channels: yield proportional to L n Hadronic channels: If we increase L we have to increase our ET cut and there is no net efficiency gain! n 09/09/09 Our current 2. 5 us latency is inadequate for a trigger decision of this complexity LHCb Upgrade – P Collins Beauty 09, Heidelberg
LHCb upgrade strategy = Move to a full software trigger The idea • Aim to operate at L=2. 1033 • Perform entire trigger on CPU farm with input rate 30 MHz • Goal is to double trigger efficiency for hadronic channels and make the yield scale with luminosity The consequence: The consequence Read out all sub-systems MHz • at All 40 subsystems must be Replace all FE-electronics; all silicon fully read out at 40 MHz modules, RICH-HPDs, FE boards of Outer Tracker • Calorimeter, Replace most FE FE electronics, silicon modules, RICH HPDs, FE boards of calorimeter and outer tracker Trigger uses ALL event information, reconstructs all primary vertices, and can cut on p. T for high i. p. Preliminary studies show that the hadron efficiency will improve by ~2, and yield will be proportional to L Increase in statistics x 20 for hadronic channels and x 10 for leptonic channels This gives the additional flexibility to adapt to the physics landscape in the next decade 09/09/09 LHCb Upgrade – P Collins Beauty 09, Heidelberg Case study: Bs ff (after HTL 1) • L = 2 x 1032 cm-2 s-1 ET> 3. 5 Ge. V e ≈ 22% Min. Bias retention 10 k. Hz • L = 1033 cm-2 s-1 ET> 2 Ge. V e ≈ 45% Min. Bias retention 28 k. Hz 13

Detector Environment @ Upgrade Radiation: Current detector designed to withstand 20 fb-1 Affects mainly large h (trackers, inner part of calorimeter) Running experience needed Note that VELO in any case will be replaced B yield from tracking efficiency (no spillover) Tracking and Occupancy: Si can be operated without spillover: giving occupancy increase of ~2 Outer tracker straws: occupancy too high: Increase area coverage of IT and use faster gas Move to scintillating fibres Material Budget an important issue (occupancy, momentum resolution) 09/09/09 LHCb Upgrade – P Collins Beauty 09, Heidelberg Luminosity (1032 cm-2 s-1) 15

Tracking @ LHCb upgrade High Luminosity will produce high occupancy and ghosts in the tracking system particularly in the Outer Tracker where a gas technique is used (drift time in straw tubes) and signal is collected in 50 -75 ns The area coverage of the Inner Tracker has to be increased, along with new sensors, new FE chip Full silicon tracker in front of magnet must be rebuilt OT Occupancy 75 ns gate 50 ns gate 2 x 1032 cm-2 s-1 OT+IT Finer pitch?

Particle ID in the RICH system Need to replace front end electronics AND photon detectors to cope with 40 MHz readout Baseline approach; keep current geometrical layout RICH 1 (aerogel+C 4 F 10) + RICH 2 (CF 4) OR, replace aerogel with new TOF system (TORCH) located after RICH 2 Photon sensors together with their new (independent) chip are the critical item: could be Ma. PMT 0. 3 M channels R&D needed (x talk, spillover, B field, lens. . . ) or upgraded HPDs study ion feedback rate many new components: production time an issue or MCPs B tolerance, timing, new idea. . .

Ramberg /TIPP 09
Calorimeters HLT seeds already provided at 40 MHz Modifications to electronics needed: September 2009: calorimeter modules placed in LHC tunnel to accumulate dose 22 Upgraded FE boards Lower PM gain (÷ 5) and increase preamp sensitivity and lower noise accordingly No showstopper foreseen Radiation tolerance currently an open issue Affects inner part of ECAL (would need replacement) Tested up to 2. 5 Mrad (1 upgrade year) R&D underway to collect more comprehensive data Pile-up (~4 at upgrade) will affect resolution: watch carefully for low p.

23 Muon System Maximum rates per channel at 2. 1033 R FEE readout already at 40 MHz z Two main concerns: ü dead time due to high rate in inner regions ü aging due to radiation in inner regions Accumulated chage (C/cm) on wires for 100 fb-1 R An evaluation of these effects will come from first data z Possibility of replacement of the inner parts with large area GEM (70 x 30 cm 2) or with MWPC, in any case with new, smaller pad readout M 1, due to background and to upgraded L 0, will be removed A transition to a fully 3 D muon projective readout (and not based on strips crossing) could reduce the fake associations (detailed studies to be performed)
