CERN Accelerating science

The RADECS conference is an important annual event in Europe in the complex field of radiation effects on devices, integrated circuits, sensors and systems, as well as radiation hardening, testing and environmental modelling. It assembles more than 500 experts from research laboratories and industry, mainly from the accelerator and aerospace communities. This year it exceptionally took place in Moscow, sponsored by the Russian Space Agency (Roscosmos) and the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research (JINR). KT has joined forces with R2E (the CERN Radiation to Electronics project) to set-up an exhibition stand in order to promote CERN’s scientific activities in the field, attract students and showcase the technologies and facilities that CERN has developed and is willing to share with external partners. This will enhance the visibility and reputation of the Organization in the field and pave the way to RADECS 2017, which will take place in Geneva.
