Description

Dear Colleagues:
It is a pleasure to invite you for the 18th RD51 Collaboration Meeting together with the workshop on MPGD Applications Beyond Fundamental Science, that will be held, from 12th to 16th of September 2016, in Aveiro, Portugal.

 

18th RD51 Collaboration Meeting (from 12th-14th September)

The meeting program will consist on working group sessions of Technological Aspects and Development of New Detector Structures, Common Characterization and Physics Issues, MPGD Related Electronics, Software and simulations, Production, and Common Test Facilities.

Workshop MPGD Applications Beyond Fundamental Science (from 15th-16th September)

From their beginning, MPGDs have played a fundamental role in HEP and Nuclear Physics. Today, due to the mature development stage of MPGDs, their applications are being extended beyond fundamental Science. The workshop on MPGD Applications Beyond Fundamental Science, intends to gather scientists and developments of applications in the fields of (but not limited to):

  • Medicine
  • Astrophysics
  • Material analysis
  • Heritage and Art
  • Homeland security
  • Industrial
  • Risk alert
  • Environment
  • etc.

 

We are looking forward to see you in Aveiro and sharing your work with whole the MPGD community:

Leszek, Silvia, João, Carlos and Fabrizio.
