International Conference on Technology and instrumentation in Particle Physics

The Technology and Instrumentation in Particle Physics 2014 (TIPP 2014) conference will be held in downtown Amsterdam, the Netherlands, from June 2-6. TIPP 2014 is the third in the new series of international conferences on detector and instrumentation under the auspices of IUPAP. The TIPP conference series, the science driven cross-disciplinary conference, started in Tsukuba, Japan in 2009 (TIPP 2009), while the second conference was in Chicago in 2011 (TIPP 2011). The conference will provide a stimulating atmosphere for scientists and engineers from around the world. The program focuses on all areas of detector development and instrumentation in particle physics, astro-particle physics and closely related fields, in particular: Accelerator-based high energy physics Non-accelerator particle physics and particle astrophysics Nuclear physics Experiments with synchrotron radiation and neutrons Instrumentation and monitoring of particle and photon beams Applications in photon science, biology, medicine, and engineering The technical requirements necessary to exploit new opportunities in these fields of science continue to grow. New detector technologies as well as improvements to existing techniques are required in order to address the physics questions we face in the next decade. It is increasingly important for the field to form industrial partnerships that may lead to transformational new technologies. This medium-sized conference brings together experts from the scientific and industrial communities to discuss current work and to plan for the future. The conference will include plenary invited talks and parallel tracks with contributions outlining state-of-the-art developments in different areas.
