| Description | Collaboration for the development of fully optical 3D TPC readout |
| Organisation | Brookhaven National Laboratory |
| Country | United States |
| Sector | Public |
| PI Contribution | University of Liverpool provided detector hardware and expertise. All experimental equipment excluding TPX3Cam and the image intensifier were provided by Liverpool. Authors at the University of Liverpool were responsible for initiating the collaboration. |
| Collaborator Contribution | DESY/CFEL provided loan of a Timepix3 based camera and Brookhaven National Laboratory provided loan of an image intensifier. Staff were provided for a two week period from University of Manchester, Czech Technical University in Prague, CFEL and Brookhaven National Laboratory. Their expertise added significantly to the project and allowed a lot of work to be done smoothly over a two week period. |
| Impact | Publication of the paper https://arxiv.org/abs/1810.09955 This paper was only possibly by combining equipment owned by each of the collaborators. The provision of staff and expertise helped the project run smoothly and gather all required data over a short two week period. |
