Description
LHCb is an experiment designed to search for evidence of new physics
effects through precise measurements of decays of B and D mesons.
Already with the early data from the first LHC running it is
possible to assess the performance of the detector and to
understand better the potential of the LHCb flavour programme.
Highlights of these early data will be presented and the
physics reach of LHCb in certain key CP-violation and rare
decay measurements will be discussed. Emphasis will
be given to those topics where results with particular sensitivity
to new physics are expected during the present 2010-11 run.
