Presentation Transcript

  1. Welcome to Vertex 2013 • The 22nd International workshop on vertex detectors • Organized by: • Max Planck Institute for Physics, Munich • Max Planck Institute for extraterrestrial Physics, Garching • Semiconductor Laboratory of the Max Planck Society • at Berg, lake Starnberg in Bavaria • I would like to thank our sponsors: • CiS • finetech • HAMAMMATSU

  2. The workshop This year is marked by the end of a really long operation of LHC We expect reports on the running experience of the vertex detectors in LHC experiments (including ‘lessons learned’). We will hear about LHC detector’s upgrade plans (present and phase II). New experiments will be ready in the near future: Star, Belle II, Panda, CBS. In the more distant future we expect ILC, which is pushed again after some agony. We include ‘other applications’ like at Free Electron Lasers, Electron Microscopy etc. There will be many talks on detector technology, radiation hardness, electronics, system aspects and new developments In addition I hope for interesting and fruitful discussion – in the sessions or outside. I want to thank all speakers for coming to this workshop and preparing their talks!

  3. Local Organizers Following people volunteered for the local organizing committee (and most of them are around) Ladislav Andricek (Halbleiterlabor) Anna Macchiolo (MPP Munich) Hans-Günther Moser (MPI für Physik, Halbleiterlabor) Jelena Ninkovic (MPI fürPhysik) Matteo Porro (MPI für extraterrestrische Physik) Rainer Richter (Halbleiterlabor) Secretary: Patricia Schmalhofer (Halbleiterlabor) Scientific Secretaries: Felix Müller (MPI fürPhysik) Christian Koffmane (Halbleiterlabor) Please ask them if you have questions or need any help!

  4. Practical Information WLAN: the access code works for one machine and for 24h Please ask Patricia if you run out of access codes Upload of talks: Please prepare your talk on a memory stick and contact the scientific secretaries (or any of the organisers) the day before the talk, latest the break before your session.

  5. Proceedings The proceedings for Vertex 2013 will be published on PoS • authorswill be contacted by the organisers and provided with login data to accesstheir personal pages on PoS (where the style files are available) • page limit: 10 pages • from theirPoSpagesauthors can upload a PDF file (plus anyattachments), with a simple two-step procedure. The deadline for submissionsisDecember 31st, 2013 For more information pleasecontact: pos-eo@sissa.it(PoSEditorial office)

  6. About the Region Lake Starnberg: The lake is (like many others in Bavaria) a relict of the Ica Age The glaciers from the alps extended up to the north end (Starnberg) and formed the lake (during the Würm period, 10,000 years ago) The lake has an area for 55 km², is 19.5 km long and 4.7 km wide and up to 127m deep. The lake has no large river as inlet but gets its water from wells. Hence the lake has still its original shape unlike many others which have already been filled up by 50% (Ammersee, Chiemsee) by the debris brought by the rivers.

  7. A bit of Bavarian History Berg is the place where the Bavarian king Ludwig II died. Ludwig lived from 1846 to 1886. He didn’t achieve anything important politically and socially (except he was a fan of Richard Wagner and sponsored him)but got famous for building fancy castles. Of course these excessive activities ruined the Bavarian state with the consequence that he was declared made and incapacitated by his own government. He was sent to Berg in 1886. June 13, 1886 he was found drowned in the lake, together with his physician. The circumstances of his death still remain a mystery, various theories claim either an accident, or suicide (official version) or even murder. Because or despite of these he was and still is very popular in Bavaria. A cross marks where Ludwig’s body was found and a chapel was build in his memory.

  8. Social Events Bavarian Olympics (Tuesday): Bavarian music, beer and games Boat trip (Wednesday): Guided, with a visit of the Votiv Chapel

  9. Some Recommendations KlosterAndechs (Monastery) Famous for its beer (dark and strong) Buchheim Museum (can be combined with boat trip) Collection of Lothar Günther Buchheim (expressionist art by Nolde, Kirchner and others) Lothar Günther Buchheim (1918-2007) was author, painter and art collector Munich can be reached within 30 min.

  10. Extra (Optional) The Oktoberfest 2013 will start Saturday, September 21 At 12pm the mayor of Munich will tap the first barrel of beer So, if you may want to extend your stay…..
