RD51 Collaboration Meeting
Dear Colleagues,
The RD51 Collaboration Meeting will take place in-person at CERN and by Zoom remote connection between 4-8 December 2023. This meeting will mark the end of the official RD51 activities and serve as the entrance point for the transition from the RD51 to DRD1.
It will be a very good opportunity to wrap up on the evolution and challenges of MPGD technologies and community in the past 15 years, looking at what has been achieved and projecting our "wish list and vision" into the future.
We strongly encourage your in-person participation!
On Wednesday, we will extend the session to spend some time together celebrating the end of a very stimulating period for many of us under the RD51 umbrella.
Please note that on Friday afternoon, the DRD1 Community Meeting will take place. Proposal presentation at the first official DRDC meeting and approval outcome from the CERN Research Board will be discussed. The session will close with the DRD1 management candidates’ open presentations.
We are really looking forward to seeing you numerous, in person or remotely, to celebrate RD51 collaboration legacy.
Please note that the meeting will take place in different rooms:
Monday: 40/S2-A01 - Salle Anderson
Tuesday: 31/3-004, IT Amphitheatre
Wednesday Morning: 31/3-004, IT Amphitheatre
Wednesday Afternoon: 30/7-018 Kjell Johnsen Auditorium
Thursday: 31/3-004, IT Amphitheatre
Friday: 40/S2-D01 - Salle Dirac
Registration is not mandatory. If needed, a CERN visitor pass can be requested by completing the registration form.
Best regards,
Eraldo, Leszek, Maxim and Silvia
