Program
The TES V workshop is part of the Applied Superconductivity
Conference
that is taking place from August 1-6, 2010 in Washington, DC. The
TES sessions are in the ASC Electronics Category and listed
below. For the entire ASC program, please go to their webpage.
In order to maintain the workshop feel of TES V, in addition to the
ASC scheduled sessions we will be having several discussion
sessions. These discussion sessions will follow immediately after
ASC scheduled sessions and are meant to provide a forum for discussing
open issues and questions, especially those that may come up during the
presentations.
We are also inviting
poster
presenters
to
create
1-2
slides which
will be presented either on:
- Monday August 2 after the 'TES Calorimeters'
session
- Tuesday August 3 after the 'TES Instrumentation
and Low Energy Calorimeters'
session
- Tuesday August 3 after the 'TES Signals and
Readout I'
session
- Thursday August 5 after the 'TES Noise'
session.
Poster presenters interested in showing 1-2 slides
should have their slides prepared and the pdf emailed either to:
- Randy Doriese
at doriese@boulder.nist.gov
(if you are presenting in the 'TES
Bolometers II' session) by Friday
July 30 (5PM EST)
- Galen O'Neil
at galen.oneil@nist.gov
(if you are presenting in the 'TES Calorimeters and TES Instrumeters'
session) by Saturday
July
31
- Jan van der Kuur at J.van.der.Kuur@sron.nl (if you
are presenting in
the 'TES Signals and Readout II' session) by Saturday

- Daniela Bagliani at Daniela.Bagliani@ge.infn.it
(if you are presenting in the 'TES Multiple Topics') by Saturday
