Luminosity measurement with the LHCb RICH detectors in Run 3
Abstract
The LHCb Ring-Imaging Cherenkov detectors are built to provide charged hadron identification over a large range of momentum. The upgraded detectors are also capable of providing an independent measurement of the luminosity for the LHCb experiment during LHC Run 3. The modelling of the opto-electronics chain, the application of the powering strategy during operations, the calibration procedures and the proof of principle of a novel technique for luminosity determination are presented. In addition, the preliminary precision achieved during the 2023 data-taking year for real-time and offline luminosity measurements is reported.
