August 7-8, 2000
Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory
Batavia, Illinois, USA
- To continue the fruitful series of workshops on large scale detectors
at StonyBrook
and Irvine,
we are organizing a small 2-day NNN Nucleon decay
- Detector site and excavation/deployment
- Detector options
- Iron/Scintillation Dectectors
- Liquid Argon TPC's
- Water Cerenkov detector
- other options
- Physics capabilities of next generation detectors
- Backgrounds for nucleon decay experiments
- Monte Carlo simulations and optimizations
- Can we use such a detector for long-baseline accelerator experiments?.
and Neutrino Detector workshop at Fermilab August 7-8, 2000. The purpose of this meeting is to consider the possibility of building nucleon decay/neutrino detectors an order of magnitude more massive than present-day detectors. Such detectors could extend the lifetime range accessible for proton decay, provide an observatory for neutrinos for atmospheric, solar and astrophysical neutrinos and perhaps serve as the target for future long baseline neutrino experiments.
The meeting will consist of brief reviews of the current and projected status of nucleon decay and neutrino experiments followed by discussions of detector designs and implementation.
Preliminary AGENDA
Topics for discussion in working groups:
The meeting will be held in 1West in the Fermilab Hirise.
We encourage anyone interested in these discussions to contact the workshop
organizers at nnn00-fermi@fnal.gov.
Some working groups
will be starting before the general meeting and presenting results
at the workshop.
Registration
There will be a 25$ registration fee payable on arrival at Fermilab.
There will also be a dinner at a good local restaurant on Monday evening,
likely cost $35/person (not included in registration per DOE regulations)
