Description

We will hold the first FoCal assembly workshop in Tsukukba, Japan for from June 17 - 23, 2025, at University of Tsukuba, Japan. The following topics will be covered at this workshop.

FoCal detector assembly
FoCal machanics and cooling
FoCal mass production
FoCal readout and trigger (espacially on HGCROCv3 and trigger)

This workshop will be held in-person, but some sessions will be also held in a hybrid mode.

Local Organizing Committee:

Tatsuya Chujo (U. Tsukuba, chair)
Motoi Inaba (Tsukuba Tech.)
Shingo Sakai (U. Tsukuba)

Supported by:
