PI Contribution Bentley is leading the UK AGATA STFC-funded project. Part of the AGATA project is the preparation of the AGATA phase at FAIR, part of HISPEC. This was one of the three major components of the UK NUSTAR project. Bentley has co-ordinated the collaboration, including the scientific and technical direction of the FAIR part of the AGATA project. The project will contribute to the mechanics, electronics, pulse-shape analysis and simulations for AGATA as part of the NUSTAR project.
Collaborator Contribution Partners are contributing science direction, and technical expertise to the project. The project will contribute to the mechanical design and construction, electronics and data acquisition, pulse-shape analysis and physics simulations for AGATA as part of the NUSTAR project.
