1 Status of the LHCb Experiment Werner Witzeling CERN, Geneva, Switzerland On behalf of the LHCb Collaboration

2 Introduction The LHCb experiment aims to investigate CP violation in the B meson decays at LHC and perhaps reveal new physics beyond the Standard Model At s = 14 TeV the pp collisions at LHC will yield abundantly b-hadrons that will be mostly produced in the forward direction The detector is designed as a single arm forward spectrometer for a Luminosity of 2 x satisfying following requirements: Efficient trigger for many B decay topologies Good pi/k separation Good decay time resolution Good mass resolution 19/10/2004 IEEE NSS 2004, Rome 2
