Mini-Workshop on gas transport parameters for present and future generation of experiments

Europe/Zurich

Description

A large range of gases has been now constrained due to renewed sensitivity to climate change and environment. This has resulted in new rules and policies for environment safety vis-á-vis gases containing greenhouse gases for the large experiments at CERN, hence that will be one of the main focus. If you wish to contribute please get in touch with the convenors.
