A wide array of developments aimed at advancing detector technologies for particle accelerators were showcased at the final annual meeting of the AIDAInnova project this month. 

The meeting, held in Prague at the Institute of Physics of the Czech Academy of Sciences between 5 to 8 May, brought together representatives of many of the EU-funded project’s 46 beneficiaries, including several representing companies. 

With the project now in its final year, talks centered on demonstrating the results of the work carried out over the past four years. 

The project is structured to improve detector

Stefania-Alexandra Juks’ poster on eco-friendly gas alternatives for particle detectors won her a place at a one-week detector school in Italy

A PhD student working on eco-friendly gas alternatives for particle detectors has spoken of her surprise and delight at winning an AIDAInnova-supported poster challenge, which granted her a fully funded place at the Bonaudi-Chiavassa International School on Particle Detectors in June. 

The poster session was a part of the CERN Experimental Physics department’s annual EP R&D Day event in May to showcase technologies for future experiments. The
