GASPARD-HYDE-TRACE Workshop 2012

Annual GASPARD-HYDE-TRACE (GHT) workshop to assess the status and progress of the GHT collaboration. The agenda at the workshop will comprise: -Status and progress of the GHT projects -Simulation (detectors, signals, etc.) -New detectors (silicon, etc.) -Pulse Shape Analysis (technique and experimental results) -Electronics (FEE, BEE) -DAQ -General discussion The workshop is organized under the auspices of the Department of Physics and Astronomy of the University of Padova and the INFN. The initiative is supported by the European Gamma and Ancillary Detectors Network (EGAN) of ENSAR (FP-7). In the spirit of EGAN an effort will be also devoted to promote synergies and exchange of information among groups developing detectors, electronics and simulation tools for state-of-the-art silicon detectors in low-energy nuclear physics. Therefore some contributions will be allocated for this purpose. In addition, a round table will be dedicated to promote discussion among the participants and the coordination of their activities.
