Description
The high resolution of the LHCb vertex detector makes it possible to
perform precise measurements of vertex positions of beam-gas and
beam-beam interactions. With these measurements beam parameters such as
width and position can be measured. A novel method for determining the
absolute luminosity at the LHC using the directly measured beam
parameters will be presented. The data taken in 2009 will be used to
illustrate the procedure.
