Description

The first science workshop for the FAUST project will be held at the Institute of Physics Building in London on the 14th and 15th of April, 2025.

FAUST is an STFC funded project to develop a state-of-the-art charged-particle detection array to be coupled with the GRETA gamma-ray spectrometer on the fast beam line at FRIB. This workshop will be used to present the expected performance of the device and discuss initial science cases, providing an avenue for feedback into the initial design and the prioritisation of the staged deployment of the array.
