First observation of CP violation in baryon decays – an important milestone in the history of particle physics. Yesterday, at the Rencontres de Moriond EW, the LHCb collaboration reported the…

The Outer Tracker (OT) is the largest component of tracking system in the original version of the LHCb detector. It was replaced by the Scintillating Fibre (SciFi) sub-detector in the…

Vincenzo Vagnoni from the National Institute for Nuclear Physics (INFN, Bologna) begins tomorrow his three-year tenure as LHCb spokesperson. He takes over from Chris Parkes from the University of Manchester.…

Today, at the CERN seminar, the LHCb collaboration presented an important result in our quest to understand the nature and origin of CP violation, which is a difference in behaviour…

Today at the CERN seminar the LHCb Collaboration presented the world’s best measurement of the CP-violating phase φs in Bs0 meson decays into J/ψK+K–. The phase φs plays a similar…

Today, at the CERN seminar, the LHCb Collaboration presented a new test of lepton universality, one of the basic principles of the Standard Model (SM) of particle physics. This principle…

Today a brand new LHCb exhibition was inaugurated at a gathering of LHCb collaborators and members of the CERN Education, Communications and Outreach team. The exhibition, which is located in…

The LHCb collaboration is currently enhancing its unique system of data filtering, Real Time Analysis, by installing a 2nd set of Graphics Processing Units (GPUs) in the trigger system. Current…
