F2F meeting

The face-to-face meeting of LCGT Collaboration will be held at Kashiwa campus from the 3rd to the 5th of August, 2011. The objective of this meeting is to let all collaboration members know the current status of LCGT and is to exchange information among different sub-systems for coherently and efficiently conducting the project. We may have to discuss unsolved problems that have been studied by the special working groups and will make decisions if possible. On the first day, we will hear talks from persons and groups that hope to join the collaboration, and also decide upon their application. We shall also hear about status of the project and management issues. On the second day, there will be presentations on the astrophysical sources that LCGT hopes to investigate, including two guest talks. The report of the sub-working groups will be presented in the afternoon of the second day and the morning session of the third day. In the afternoon of the third day, we will have talks on R&D for advanced detectors.

I hope in this meeting that we have wide and deep discussions to find the best ways to fulfill the scientific objectives of LCGT.
