The DRD1 Gaseous Detectors School 2026 will take place at FRIB, MSU from July 8 - 17, 2026.
The school focuses on state-of-the-art gaseous detector technologies including MPGDs, (M)RPCs and wire-based detectors. The programme of the school comprises morning lectures by world experts in the field offering an overview on gas detectors physics, detector technologies, simulation and modelling, readout approaches, manufacturing techniques as well as applications, and hands-on exercises on various technologies in the afternoons, with an emphasis on methodologies.
The target audience are PhD students and young scientists working on gaseous detectors or entering the field.
Students are invited to present a poster during a dedicated session of the school.
Registration for students is free. Accommodation, travel and other expenses have to be covered by the participants. Admission to the school is limited.
The morning lecture sessions are open to the community and can be followed in-person or by remote connection. Registration is required.
