ASCIMAT workshop on the aspects of fast timing (June 14, 2018)

  • by
The ASCIMAT workshop was organised in joint collaboration with the COST FAST project, of which FZU is also the coordinator.
This one day event took place at The Technology Centre of the Czech Academy of Sciences and the was divided into two sessions. The morning meeting was COST-related, which was intoduced by invited speaker prof. Vasiliev, who reviewed theoretical aspects of fast timing and suggested the most suitable processes to reach such a goal in a scintillation material. Other presentations reviewed the recent activities of participating groups and institutions in the project including some of the ASCIMAT project’s (FZU, CERN).There were 21 ASCIMAT members present and the COST part served as an educational introduction into specific aspects of fast timing issues in scintillator R&D, which is an important part of the ASCIMAT training and collaboration program. The ASCIMAT workshop took place in the afternoon, which commenced with an invited talk from Dr. E. Mihokova, who reviewed and discussed quantum tunneling process as a specific part of luminescence mechanism, giving rise to slow decay components. Following this, several presentations were given by young members from the FZU, CERN and University of Lyon consortium partners, where they presented their current activities and results.

This workshop was an informative session and the presentations from the event are available for downloading below:
