The invention of Micro-Pattern Gaseous Detectors (MPGD), in particular the Gas Electron Multiplier (GEM) and the Micro-Mesh Gaseous Structure (Micromegas), has triggered active research and development on a new generation of gaseous detectors. These technologies, together with other micro-pattern detector schemes recently developed, allow for the development of detectors with unprecedented spatial resolution, high-rate capability, large sensitive area, operational stability, and increased radiation hardness. A large number of groups world wide are developing MPGD devices for future experiments at particle accelerators, for experiments in nuclear and astroparticle physics, as well as for industrial applications such as medical imaging, material science, and security inspection. Given the growing interest in this rapidly developing field, we are organizing an International Conference series, dedicated to review the current status of various MPGD detector technologies, new results, new concepts, applications and future developments. |
