A new data-centre for the LHCb experiment
... In both remote hosting options it is necessary to transport 32 Tbit/s over a very small number of fibres. This is obvious for off-site hosting (cost of fibre / bandwidth rental) Consider[r] ...
Branching ratios of charmed baryons in the LHCb experiment
... For all other tracks the process is re-iterated until no increases in likelihood can be made. Consequently, the number of combinations is reduced from 5 N to 4(N − 1). The high number of HPD pixels and the high ...
