First experiences with the LHCb heterogeneous software trigger

Since 2022, the LHCb detector has been taking both proton-proton and lead-ion data at the LHC collision rate using a fully software-based trigger. This has been implemented on GPUs at its first stage and CPUs at its second. The setup allows for reconstruction, alignment, calibration and selections to be performed online -- known as the real time analysis paradigm. As well as this, physics analyses are performed using the output of online reconstruction with early results shown using data taken in 2022.
