First FLARE
Workshop
November 4-6, 2004
Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory
Liquid Argon Imaging Detectors technology has been established
as a mature and robust detection technique.
It presents itself as a very attractive choice for neutrino experiments, where
the low rates and relatively simple final states, excellent particle identification
capabilities, very good spatial granularity and resolution enable a complete
reconstruction of final states over a very wide range of neutrino energies.
Fermilab neutrino beams represent a major investment of High Energy
Physics resources. This investment can be fully exploited by complementing
these beams with modern powerful neutrino detectors.
This workshop will review the status of the detector technology
and the progress made towards a formulation of proposals. In particular, we plan to
focus our attention on:
 | Physics potential of a 50 kton Liquid Argon detector as a NuMI Off-axis
experiment, including its capabilities for supernova and proton decay detection |
 | Physics potential of a medium size Liquid Argon TPC in a near
MINOS hall |
 | Physics potential of a Liquid Argon detector in a MiniBOONE beam
|
 | Review of the status of the Liquid Argon Imaging technology (ICARUS) |
 | Technical aspects of very large detectors: tanks, purification systems,
very large wire chambers |
There will be no registration fee, but we very strongly encourage
the participants to register using the
online registration tools to facilitate the preparation of the workshop.
We encourage computer-based presentations at the workshop.
However, a projector will be made available to those using viewgraphs.
Following the workshop, the presented material will be available
at the off-axis web pages, located at http://www-off-axis.fnal.gov/flare.
We expect all presentations to be provided to us electronically
(that is, we are not planning to provide scanning services).
Looking forward to seeing you at Fermilab.
