Description

The LHCb Conditions database management and development software components of ecosystems are one of the highest priorities established by the leadership of LHCb. A group of KIPT responsible for the implementation of defined operations. Point 1, in turn, can be decomposed into the on-going mission-critical LHCb Conditions database management. While point 2 - tools of development and optimization tasks. The main result is the successful management of The Conditions Database of the LHCb experiment and the development of automated distribution system CondDBDBS. The last one provides versioned geometry and versioned time dependent conditions data for all LHCb data processing in a heterogeneous computing environment. This environment is ranging from user laptops to the LHCb HLT farm and the Worldwide LHC Computing Grid. At the same time, upgrade of LHCb detector requires replacement the present Inner Tracker with a new tracker which covers a larger surface to operate at high luminosity pp collisions with of 14 TeV center of mass energy. To keep the sensitive elements at a temperature around 0 oC, the sensors must be thermally and mechanically separated from the readout electronics. Also this approach allows to move electronics X/X0 even further away from high flux region. This is achieved with the Tape Automatic Bonding flexible kapton connection developed by SE SRTIIE. Four prototypes of the new LHCb Inner Tracker modules are constructed. These modules are evaluated by the KIPT group using a measurement set-up at CERN. Their behavior of all prototypes is determined as a function of the length of the TAB cables, and the sensor thickness and length.
