Installation of Vertex Locator (VELO) sub-detector in LHCb
|

|---|---|
|
The LHC proton beams pass through the VErtex LOcator (VELO) sub-dectector for the full length of the LHCb detector, safely encased within a beryllium pipe. The only point where the beams collide, and particles containing b and anti-b quarks are produced, is inside the VELO sub-detector.
