Description
The LHCb experiment is planning its Upgrade II to align with the High-Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) era, aiming to enhance its discovery potential through a combination of higher luminosity and increased detection efficiency for photons, $\pi^0$, electrons, and positrons. This powerful synergy promises to unlock new physics opportunities. Key to the success of this upgrade are three critical elements: high granularity, precise time resolution, and advanced feature extraction, supported by machine learning. This presentation will provide an overview of the ongoing R&D efforts for timing-imaging layers, focusing on their application in a 5D calorimeter, hadron identification at HL-LHC, and applications for experiments at future high-luminosity colliders.
