Possible Future Technical Co-Sponsorship
• Fermilab detector workshop– “to coordinate detector R&D at national labs and
universities”– First one held in October 2010– Possibly to be held annually– APS Division of Particle and Fields was involved– IEEE not officially involved but Bo Yu was a presenter– We were contacted by Bruce Brown (Fermilab) about
possible IEEE/NPSS/RITC future involvement
