12/11/2003L. Baksay, M. Hohlmann - PHENIX IB meeting at BNL3 What’s Florida Tech ? Small private institution (~ 4500 students) Technical orientation (engineering, science) Founded in 1958 by physicist J. Keuper for “missile men” from Cape Canaveral Department of Physics & Space Sciences: Our new home (with 100’ x 30’ high bay) Web cam

12/11/2003L. Baksay, M. Hohlmann - PHENIX IB meeting at BNL4 HEP group HEP program at Florida Tech started in 1999 (by L.B.) Main activities: –Gaseous detector R&D (GEMs, aging simulation) –L3 data analysis (  physics) –CMS (muon alignment) –QuarkNet outreach program (3 rd year) Group members: –2 faculty –1 part-time engineer –3 grad students –8 undergrads

12/11/2003L. Baksay, M. Hohlmann - PHENIX IB meeting at BNL8 IEEE Portland 2003 Detector Aging Workshop Submit an AbstractSubmit an Abstract Sign up for this WorkshopSign up for this Workshop High Energy Physics experiments are currently entering a new era which requires the operation of gaseous particle detectors at unprecedented high rates and integrated particle fluxes. Full functionality of such detectors over the lifetime of an experiment in a harsh radiation environment is of prime concern to the involved experimenters. The goal of the workshop is to provide a forum for interested experimentalists to review the progress in understanding of aging effects and to exchange recent experiences. For more information, contact: Maxim Titov (Freiburg) and Marcus Hohlmann (Florida Institute of Technology) Maxim TitovMarcus Hohlmann

12/11/2003L. Baksay, M. Hohlmann - PHENIX IB meeting at BNL9 Joining PHENIX Strong interest in next generation of gaseous tracking detectors: TPCs with GEM readout PHENIX TPC will be first fast detector of this type in a heavy-ion or pp experiment unique Would like to focus on the R&D for the TPC Gain experience for Linear Collider TPC
