Abstract
The Belle II experiment searches for beyond-the-standard-model physics using the Belle II detector and SuperKEKB collider. The silicon vertex detector (SVD) is crucial for particle tracking. After the 1.5-year shutdown from June 2022, Run 2 began in January 2024; Run 2 operation shows stable noise levels, high signal-to-noise ratios, and hit efficiency over 99%. To manage higher beam background from increased luminosity, new techniques such as hit-time selection and cluster grouping are being developed. These methods increase the acceptable level of occupancy by distinguishing hits from triggered collisions and other sources.File in questo prodotto:
