The Technology and Instrumentation in Particle Physics 2017 (TIPP2017) conference will be held in Beijing, the capital of China, from May 22-26. TIPP2017 will be the fourth in this series of international conferences on detectors and instrumentation, held under the auspices of the International Union of Pure and Applied Physics (IUPAP). The TIPP conference series, a science-driven cross-disciplinary conference, started in Tsukuba, Japan in 2009 (TIPP 2009), with the second conference held in Chicago in 2011 (TIPP 2011), and the third in Amsterdam in 2014 (TIPP2014). The conference aims to provide a stimulating atmosphere for scientists and engineers from around the world to discuss the latest developments in the field. The program focus is 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
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, as in the past, include plenary invited talks and parallel tracks with contributions outlining state-of-the-art developments in different areas. The program will cover the following areas in parallel tracks focusing on the main themes of sensors, experiments, data processing, emerging technologies, and applications to other fields:
Experimental detector systems
Gaseous detectors
Semiconductor detectors
Calorimeters
Particle identification
Photon detectors
Dark Matter Detectors
Neutrino Detectors
Astrophysics and space instrumentation
Front-end electronics and fast data transmission
Trigger and data acquisition systems
Machine Detector
Interface and beam instrumentation
Backend readout structures and embedded systems
Medical Imaging, security and other applications
Lets meet in the beautiful Beijing for a fruitful conference and we wish you a nice stay.
