Description

Dear Colleagues:

It is our pleasure to invite you to the RD51 Collaboration Meeting and the topical workshop on “New Horizons in TPCs” which will take place from 5th to 9th of October 2020, hosted by the Galician Institute of High Energy Physics (IGFAE).

The meeting will be fully virtual and fee-free, however registration is required in order to access the vidyo and slack channels that have been enabled for remote attendance.

Looking forward to an inspiring meeting from Santiago de Compostela!

Best Regards
Diego González-Díaz (conference chair)
