DUNE LArTPC Pixel Workshop

US/Central
Alan Bross (Fermilab), Dan Dwyer (LBNL), James Sinclair (University of Bern), Jonathan Asaadi (University of Texas Arlington)
Description

The Pixel LArTPC Autumn Workshop will build on the recent successful demonstrations of a new generation LAr TPC detectors with pixelated charge readout, as well as cover related technological advances in light readout and high voltage.  We will address the physics targets and technical needs for future large-scale pixel readout systems for the DUNE Near Detector LArTPC and HPGArTPC Modules, and in particular the potential for one of the DUNE Far Detector Modules.

The workshop will take place from 8:30am until 5pm on Saturday Sep. 29 in Curia II.  We will also arrange a group dinner for those who are interested.
