contents In Run 3 of the LHC, the instantaneous luminosity at the LHCb interaction point has been increased by a factor of five, from $4\times 10^{32}\rm{cm}^{-2}\rm{s}^{-1}$ to $2\times 10^{33}\rm{cm}^{-2}\rm{s}^{-1}$. Several hardware interventions, including a complete overhaul of the readout electronics, have been carried out on the muon detector. The muon identification algorithms in the software trigger were improved with the aim of ensuring Run 2 performance under a higher particle rate. The operation and calibration of the upgraded muon detector are presented. The muon detection efficiency and muon identification performance are evaluated on data calibration samples collected during the year 2024. A muon identification efficiency above 90\% with sub-percent hadron misidentification probability is achieved by exploiting the pattern of hits in the muon detector.

High Energy Physics - Experiment
In Run 3 of the LHC, the instantaneous luminosity at the LHCb interaction point has been increased by a factor of five, from $4\times 10^{32}\rm{cm}^{-2}\rm{s}^{-1}$ to $2\times 10^{33}\rm{cm}^{-2}\rm{s}^{-1}$. Several hardware interventions, including a complete overhaul of the readout electronics, have been carried out on the muon detector. The muon identification algorithms in the software trigger were improved with the aim of ensuring Run 2 performance under a higher particle rate. The operation and calibration of the upgraded muon detector are presented. The muon detection efficiency and muon identification performance are evaluated on data calibration samples collected during the year 2024. A muon identification efficiency above 90\% with sub-percent hadron misidentification probability is achieved by exploiting the pattern of hits in the muon detector.
