Numerical analyses of Machine Induced Background in the LHCb experiment have been performed for early and nominal operation of the LHC. In order to have a comprehensive view of the Machine Background in the experiment all of its sources, ranging from collimators' cleaning inefficiency to distant and local beam-gas interactions need to be estimated; particles showering from the losses are then to be...
This paper aims to describe the feasibility studies performed to evaluate the background radiation levels in the LHCb experiment with Geant4. LHCb is one of the experiments that will operate at the LHC (Large Hadron Collider) under construction at CERN. The simulation toolkit Geant4 has been used to model the interactions of particles with the detector. Geant4 is a software toolkit developed and maintained...
