Since 2015, with the restart of LHC for its second run data taking, LHCb experiment has been empowered a dedicated computing model to select and analyse calibration samples measure performance particle identification (PID) detectors algorithms. The novel technique was developed within framework innovative trigger experiment, which relies on online event reconstruction most datasets, reserving offline special physics cases. strategy process samples, includes data-processing scheme combining...

The LHCb experiment has the unique possibility, among LHC experiments, to be operated in fixed target mode, using its internal gas SMOG. excellent detector capabilities for vertexing, tracking and particle identification allow measure exclusive production collisions of protons on different nuclei at an energy scale $\sqrt{s}_{NN}\sim 100~\text{GeV}$, providing valuable inputs modelling cosmic ray interactions atmosphere cosmos. In particular, by operating SMOG with helium, performed first...
