Welcome to
the UC Berkeley (UCB) –
Univ. Tokyo (UT)
Advanced
Summer School in Radiation
Detection & Measurements !
Given the
remarkable advances in radiation detection and
measurements achieved recently for a broad range of applications, this
summer
school aims at illustrating these advances and their impact as well as
their
drivers for these applications. It combines lectures from experts in
their
respective fields and tours of near-by facilities. This lecture series
is
initially set up as workshop with the focus on graduate students having
some
basic knowledge and experience in radiation detection. However, it is
open to
undergraduate students interested in this field as well. To reflect the
international character students from Japan and the U.S. as well as
elsewhere
are invited. It is envisioned to convert this workshop into a summer
course
within the Departments of Nuclear Engineering of Univ. Tokyo and UC
Berkeley.
This first
summer school will be held July 21-25 on the UC
Berkeley campus with lectures in the morning and in the afternoon, each
day
concluding with a social hour. This social hour as well as the breaks
in
between the lectures allow a more extensive conversation between
students and
lecturers.
As part of
this week , we will tour experimental facilities of the
Nuclear Engineering Department as well as Lawrence Berkeley National
Laboratory.
Â
The summer
school is jointly hosted by the Nuclear Engineering
Department of UC Berkeley the Nuclear Engineering Department of Univ.
Tokyo and
sponsored by the Global-Center-of-Excellence of Univ. Tokyo.
