1st WORKSHOP ON RADIOPROTECTION SAFETY ISSUES

RELATED TO RIB FACILITIES

CERN, 30 October - 1 November 2002

The first workshop on radioprotection safety issues related to RIB facilities will be held at CERN 30 October to 1 November. In this second circular we present a first list of confirmed speakers and give some practical information. You will be informed as soon as the detailed program will be available on the workshop web site.

We will continue to accept last minute abstracts up until 15 October. We want to stress that the workshop is focused on safety aspects on RIB facilities but that we also accept abstract on safety aspects of other similar facilities dealing with high power targets.

EU PROPOSAL FOR THE 6TH FRAME WORK PROGRAMME

A special meeting will be held during the second day for all those that wish to participate in the proposal for a study on safety issues at RIB facilities within the European Unions 6th framework programme.

DATES AND TIMES

The workshop will start Wednesday 30 October at 13.00. It will end in the early afternoon 1 November. The conference dinner will take place in Switzerland at Auberge de Dardagny 30 October.
