Techniques and challenges for aligning LHCb's Scintillating Fibre Tracker — •Sophie Hollitt — Experimentelle Physik 5, TU Dortmund, Dortmund, Germany

LHCb's new Scintillating Fibre Tracker (SciFi) is currently being commissioned for the next LHC data run beginning later this year. Correctly calibrating the existing LHCb alignment algorithms with respect to the SciFi's geometry will be crucial for the SciFi to reach its full potential during operation.

The selection of alignment constraints and degrees of freedom for the different parts of the SciFi at different scales provides a particular challenge. In this talk, the current status of the alignment will be discussed in relation to this challenge.
