> FINAL ANNOUNCEMENT: RHIC Detector Workshop, Nov. 13-14 > ------------------------------------------- > Dear Colleagues, > > This is a final announcement for the "RHIC Detector > Workshop: R&D for Future Detectors and Upgrades" which will > take place at Brookhaven National Laboratory on > November 13-14, 2001. > > The workshop will address detector and electronics developments > of interest for the future RHIC program, with the goal of > of laying the groundwork for specific R&D proposals for the > next phase of RHIC experimentation. > > To focus the discussion, and facilitate progress at the meeting > the following working groups have been formed: > > Semiconductor Vertex Tracking > Rene Bellwied (bellwied@physics.wayne.edu) > > Gas Tracking Detectors > Itzhak Tserruya (tserruya@wicc.weizmann.ac.il) > > Particle Identification > Hideki Hamagaki (hamagaki@cns.s.u-tokyo.ac.jp) > > Trigger/Data Acquisition > James Nagle (nagle@nevis1.nevis.columbia.edu) > > These working groups will examine the state of development in > areas where refined or emerging technologies are of interest > for the next phase of experiments at RHIC. > > Progress is ongoing in developing the agenda for the working group > discussions, including questions to be addressed and R&D required to > find solutions. It is expected that significant progess in this > direction will be accomplished by the working groups prior to > the meeting on Nov. 13-14. > > Information concerning the working groups as well as the agenda > for the plenary sessions may be found at the website for the > workshop: > > > www.star.bnl.gov/STAR/rhicworkshop > > People interested in joining the ongoing discussions in the > working groups should contact the appropriate convenor. Anyone > planning to attend the meeting on November 13-14, should > register for the meeting at the above website to insure > the conference secretariat can plan appropriately and arrange for > the advance preparation of temporary BNL ID badges for those who do > not have an existing guest appointment. > > This meeting promises to be a lively and informative discussion > of scientific needs, technical requirements, and R&D needs > key to the future physics program at RHIC. We look forward to > a stimulating discussion and welcome all interested parties > to join us for this important and timely discussion. > > Sincerely, > > The Organizing Committee: > S. Aronson, R. Bellwied, A. Drees, C. Fabjan, T. Hallman, H. Hamagaki, > T. Ludlam, J. Nagle, G. van Nieuwenhuizen, M. Grosse-Perdekamp, V. > Radeka, H. Wieman >
