Description
Planning has begun for a DITANET Topical Workshop on Detection Techniques that will take place on the 7th and 8th November 2011 in Seville, Spain. This workshop will be hosted by the Universiy of Seville/CNA. The purpose of the workshop is to discuss the state-of-the-art in particle detection techniques and sensors, as used for example in Particle and Nuclear Physics, as well as in various applications such as medical or security purposes. The scope of the workshop includes beam tracking detectors, charged particle detectors, gamma ray detectors and neutron detectors. The workshop will be held as a satellite event to the DITANET international conference on diagnostics techniques.
