DRD1 Gaseous Detectors School The 2026 DRD1 Gaseous Detectors School will be held at the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) on the campus of Michigan State University (MSU) in East Lansing, Michigan, USA, from July 8 to July 17, 2026. This school will focus on state-of-the-art gaseous detector technologies, including Micro-Pattern Gaseous Detectors (MPGDs), (Multi-)Resistive Plate Chambers ((M)RPCs), and wire-based detectors. The program will feature morning lectures by leading international experts, covering a broad range of topics such as the fundamentals of gas detector physics, detector technologies, simulation and modeling, readout systems, manufacturing methods, and applications. Afternoon sessions will be dedicated to hands-on training with various detector technologies, emphasizing practical techniques and methodologies. The school is primarily intended for Ph.D. students and early-career scientists with a strong interest in gaseous detectors or plans to enter the field. Participants will also have the opportunity to present their research during a dedicated poster session. Student registration is free, but participants are responsible for their own travel, lodging, and personal expenses. Admission to the school is limited to ensure an effective learning environment. https://indico.cern.ch/event/1572535/

Physics of Atomic Nuclei Camp (PAN)

Physics of Atomic Nuclei (PAN) is a free week-long program for U.S. high school students, exploring atomic nuclei's fundamentals and their connections to astrophysics and cosmology, inspiring future scientists.

During PAN, participants engage in hands-on activities led by FRIB faculty, staff, and students, exploring atomic nuclei and their connections to astrophysics. PAN is sponsored by FRIB, which is a user facility for the U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science (DOE-SC), supporting the mission of the DOE-SC Office of Nuclear Physics.

PAN offers:

  • Insight into research at a top rare-isotope laboratory.
  • Introductions to astrophysics, precision measurement, and nuclear science.
  • Opportunities to conduct nuclear physics experiments.
  • Networking with researchers on diverse scientific questions.
  • Exploration of various career opportunities in science.
  • Experience of college life.
  • Free room and board provided on campus, if needed.
