Overview

We are excited to host the 7th “International Workshop on Application of Noble Gas Xenon to Science and Technology” (XeSAT2024) will take place from May 24 to 27 2024 at the Tsung-Dao Lee Institute in Shanghai, China. The conference follows a series of successful iterations worldwide and will bring together physicists, chemists, and engineers to discuss the advances in noble gas technology and their applications in various fields.

The conference will have plenary sessions and reserve plenty of time for discussion. We welcome abstract submissions from all relevant sectors and encourage especially junior scientists to participate in the discussions.

XeSAT2024 will be organized by the PandaX group at Shanghai Jiao Tong University. The conference venue will be at Tsung-Dao Lee Institute in Pudong District, Shanghai.

The registration fees for non-students/students are RMB 2500/1600 (~300/200 EURO). If payments are finalized before April 30, 2024, an early-bird discount is offered: RMB 2000/1200 (~250/150 EURO) for non-students/students respectively.

May is the perfect time to visit Shanghai. We look forward to hosting you at the exciting conference.

Topics

The conference will involve fields related to the physics and chemistry of noble gas detectors and their applications in science, the medical field, and engineering. Although the series started with a focus on xenon, we have expanded to include other noble gas detectors, recent progress on related new detector technology, photon sensors, and new advances in technology/engineering. Recent developments in large-scale dark matter and double-beta decay experiments will also be highlighted.

The main topics will be as follows:
  • Noble gas properties for radiation detection
  • Calorimetric applications to dark matter, double beta decay, and other physics topics
  • Imaging applications in medicine, astrophysics, and nuclear engineering
  • Novel techniques in noble gas detector R&D
  • Gas and liquid handling; industrial supplies
  • Background Reduction and shielding technology
