Introduction – Goals of today’s meeting • Why • set up a NDI group? • Who • is in the NDI group? • What • are the current research activities in NDI? • are the future plans for NDI? • do we do next? Introduction Summary Presentations
NDI – Why set up a new group? • Times are a-changin’ (or seem to be) • Science prioritisation resulting in a more focussed program • Encouragement to broaden our horizons i.e. contribute to other areas of science & the UK • Buzz words: KT, EI, Grand challenges, Futures, BD • Squeeze on funding & uncertainty about the next 3 year CSR settlement • Recruitment ban • We should do something • (re)State and defend our role in detector development and construction - • Focussed detector RD plan which matches the PP roadmap • Demonstrate a commitment to KT by understanding where we have the most impact • Need to have an organisation which gets maximum benefit from the in-house expertise • Show a commitment to improving efficiency by sharing tools and facilities • Establish a scheme to attract students & train them in detector techniques
NDI – Who is will be in the NDI? • The NDI group is a ‘means to an end’ • Strengthen the role of PPD in detector development • The NDI group will co-exist with the project groups. • PPD staff will be able to share time between projects • and new detector initiatives • For this first Kickoff meeting, invitations were sent to people • Active in generic R&D • Investigating possible future projects • Active in finding new applications for techniques developed in particle physics • Currently responsible for departmental research tools and facilities • And to anyone else interested and available (apologies from Dave W. & Claire S.) • Here today: • Rob Edgecock, Barbara Camanzi, Tim Durkin, Stephen Haywood, Pawel Majewski, John Matheson, Norman McCubbin, Marcel Stanitzki, be, Jan Strube, Mike Tyndel, Giulio Villani, Fergus Wilson, Steve Worm, Gary Zhang, • What • are the current research activities in NDI? • Goal of today’s meeting • are the future plans for NDI? • do we do next?
NDI – What are the current/future research activities in NDI? • I am listening and taking notes • “What can you do for an NDI group? • “ What can an NDI group do for you?
Summary session • Activities • Current • Over the next 5 years • Facilities • Currently available • Needed over the next 5 years • Expertise • Currently available in PPD • Needed over the next 5 years • Funding needed • New detector initiatives (fte & capital) • To maintain facilities and tools • Organisation – first thoughts • How should things work within PPD? • How should we interact with other areas of STFC (TD, Science departments e.g. ISIS, Diamond, Futures...) • With Universities • Students • How do we incorporate students into our activities
