| Abstract | Possible new layouts of the LHCb Vertex Locator (VELO) have been compared with the existing baseline design outlined in the Technical Proposal. Based on a comparison of essential figures of merit, namely vertex resolutions, event selection efficiencies, trigger performance and technical constraints, an updated baseline design is proposed. |
