About the Workshop
The workshop will cover all aspects of electronics for particle physics experiments, and accelerator instrumentation of general interest to users. It is continuing and expanding the scope of the former workshop on electronics for LHC and future experiments (LECC). LHC experiments will remain a focus of the meeting, but a strong emphasis on R&D for future experimentation will be maintained, such as SLHC, CLIC, ILC, neutrino facilities, as well as other particle and astroparticle physics experiments.
The purposes of the workshop are:
- to present results and original concepts for electronic research and development relevant to particle physics experiments as well as accelerator and beam instrumentation at future facilities
- to review the status of electronics for the LHC experiments
- to identify and encourage common efforts for the development of electronics
- to promote information exchange and collaboration in the relevant engineering and physics communities.
