title = "The run IIb trigger upgrade for the D{\O} experiment",
abstract = "The increase in instantaneous luminosity anticipated in Run IIb of the Tevatron collider at Fermilab requires increased background rejection capabilities from the trigger system of the D{\O} detector. A set of upgrades is under way to improve triggering at level 1 in the calorimeter and tracker, and at level 2 in the silicon track trigger and software triggers. Reductions of up to a factor of ten on the rates of high transverse momentum triggers are anticipated with the upgrades described.",
