The 5th DRD1 Collaboration Meeting is being organized. A full week for the community to present and share their scientific and technological research activities and achievements is being prepared.
WORKING GROUPS SESSIONS
- WG1: Technological Aspects and Developments of New Detector Structures, Common Characterization and Physics Issues
- WG2: Applications
- WG3: Gas and Materials
- WG4: Modeling and Simulations
- WG5: Electronics for gaseous detectors
- WG6: Production and Technology Transfer
- WG7: Collaboration Laboratories and Facilities
- WG8: Knowledge Transfer, Training, Career Promotion
Please get in touch with the Working Groups conveners if your group plans to contribute.
TOPICAL WORKSHOP
Please note that on Wednesday 18 the meeting will host a topical workshop, “Towards Sustainable Gas Mixtures for Future Detectors” organized by the Working Group 3 Conveners.
The aim of the workshop is to provide an overview and foster discussion on regulatory, safety, and operational challenges related to gas mixtures for detectors used in HEP and beyond. Topics include emerging regulations (e.g., PFAS, flammability), safety concerns, procurement and cost issues, and technical strategies such as gas recycling and eco-friendly mixtures. The workshop also aims to promote collaboration among DRD1 researchers, gas suppliers, chemists, and environmental experts to develop sustainable solutions for detector operations.
WORK PACKAGES
We would like to use the Collaboration Meeting as an opportunity to view at the scientific activities across the DRD1 Work Packages. Dedicated time will be reserved to each WPs.
While the official WP start will follow the endorsement process, many institutes are already contributing to the research lines outlined in the DRD1 proposal.
The meeting will be a key moment to share progress, align on next steps, and strengthen collaboration across the community—also in view of the upcoming WP endorsements and the DRDC review in November.
If needed, a CERN visitor pass can be requested by completing the registration form.
