11th International "Hiroshima" Symposium on the Development and Application of Semiconductor Tracking Detectors (HSTD11) in conjunction with 2nd Workshop on SOI Pixel Detectors (SOIPIX2017)

This year's "Hiroshima" Symposium (HSTD) is co-organized with the Workshop on SOI Pixel Detector (SOIPIX), to benefit from shared human and research resources. The venue is the island of Okinawa, and will be held at the Auditorium of the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology Graduate University (OIST), with strong support from the institute.

True to tradition, the primary goal of the "Hiroshima" Symposium is to bring experts in design, processing, and applications of semiconductor tracking detectors together for discussions of experiences, lessons learned, and new ideas which are still in the early stage of development.

SOIPIX is an innovative radiation and imaging detector using a new semiconductor technology, Silicon-On-Insulator (SOI) multi-layer wafer. The SOI technology enables us to realize a 3D sensor where sensor layer and readout electronics layer are bonded in a truly monolithic way, which will open up new frontiers of particle and nuclear physics, astrophysics, material and life science with quantum beam imaging.
