The program section is divided by weekday to provide a complete package of sessions for each conference day. Each daily section includes oral, poster, joint, and special sessions and workshops. The page color for oral and poster session content is reversed for clarity: oral presentation listings are contained in colored pages with the day indicated with a lighter watermark. Poster presentation pages are light color with a darker watermark. At the beginning of each day, a Daily Schedule is presented to give an overview of the events for the respective day. The Daily Schedule uses the same colors used for each respective program. The colors shown below are used as indicated. Session NSS Sessions MIC Sessions RTSD Sessions Joint Sessions Workshops or Special Events Sessions Daily Program Sunday Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Friday Saturday Additional Daily Schedule Colors Industrial Exhibit Short Courses Social Activities Color Code 3 Welcome from the General Chair D ear Colleagues and Friends, it’s Fall and it’s time for the NSS/MIC/RTSD meeting again! The 2012 IEEE Nuclear Science Symposium and Medical Imaging Conference, together with the Workshop on Room-Temperature Semiconductor X-Ray and Gamma-Ray Detectors will be held at the Disneyland Hotel (Anaheim, California), from October Tom Lewellen 29th to November 3rd. This meeting has always been a great opportunity to get together with old friends and to make new ones, to exchange ideas and share knowledge and experience in the nuclear science and medical imaging fields - and 2012 will be no exception. Our technical chairs have once again assembled a varied and outstanding program of presentations. As with previous meetings, there will be short courses on the preceding Saturday and Sunday (October 27 and 28) continuing on through Monday. There will also be refresher courses on several NSS and MIC topics during the week. In addition, we anticipate having several workshops. For example, there will be a two-day Linear Collider Event (October 29-30). Details can be found on the conference web site (www.nss-mic.org/2012). space will be specifically set up to allow both the exhibitors and attendees ample space for discussions and exploration of common interests. Overall, the traditional excellence of the NSS, MIC, and RTSD programs will be continued and enhanced in 2012 with the combination of outstanding presentations, educational sessions, special emphasis seminars, and a venue that will promote the informal exchange of ideas and information. Social events include the exhibitor reception on Tuesday, the general conference reception on Wednesday, and the NSS Luncheon, RTSD Luncheon, and MIC Dinner. There will also be other events for smaller groups such as the Gold Reception and the special Women In Engineering session. And if all goes well, we should have a few additional surprises along the way. All in all, a very full week. I look forward to seeing you in Anaheim. Tom Lewellen General Chair While the venue will be relaxing, offering many options when one is not attending sessions, the main purpose of this meeting continues to be the exchange of information in the many scientific and engineering disciplines represented by the attendees. The NSS portion of the conference is an ideal forum for scientists and engineers in the field of nuclear science, radiation instrumentation, software engineering, data acquisition, and related applications to present their work and network with their colleagues from around the world. Similarly, the MIC has consistently provided one of the most productive forums for the exchange of information on the physics, engineering, and mathematics of Nuclear Medicine. The MIC goes further with many contributions from other areas of medical imaging, including X-ray and magnetic resonance imaging. The RTSD is an ideal companion to the NSS and MIC programs with topics of interest common to both fields. The conference will be making special efforts to obtain support grants for students to attend this important meeting and take full advantage of the unique scientific and educational opportunity. The conference will also include an industrial exhibition where the providers and developers of many of the technologies and services used by our attendees will be presenting their products.

Anaheim developed into an industrial center, producing electronics, aircraft parts and canned fruit. Its name is a blend of “Ana”, after the nearby Santa Ana River, and “heim”, a common German place name compound originally meaning “home”. Anaheim is now part of Orange County, California, which is world-famous for tourism. A small county, there are charming seaside communities along the Pacific Ocean, the Orange Coast, a string of seaside jewels that have been compared with the French Riviera or the Costa del Sol. Forty-two miles of beaches offer pristine stretches of sand, tide pools teeming with marine life, ecological preserves, secluded coves, picturesque pleasure-boat harbors, and legendary surf breaks. The county also includes the Rancho Mission Viejo, an 1845 Mexican Land Grant in the Saddleback Mountains, part of which is still a working cattle and sheep ranch. The architecture of the area ranges from Mission Spanish of San Juan Capistrano to the ultramodern Crystal Cathedral. The Companion Program provides a daily selection of guided excursions to places of interest both within and outside of the conference site. All tours will depart from and return to the Companion Program Meeting Area, the Adventure Room in the Adventure Tower. This meeting area will be available as a lounge for all registered companions to gather during the conference. Information about the Anaheim area will also be available for individuals and families to plan trips and excursions other than those offered in the Companion Program. This is an exciting program, and we look forward to seeing you in Anaheim. Please contact either of us for more information.

All CR manuscripts will be made available online at http://www.nss-mic.org/2012/ConferenceRecord before the DVD-ROMs are mailed out. The approved word processor templates, available in PDF, MS Word and LaTeX format can be downloaded from http://www.nss-mic.org/2012/Public/Publications/templates.htm. All manuscripts submitted to the IEEE must be in IEEE Xplore-compatible PDF format. To assist authors in meeting this requirement, IEEE has established a web based service called “PDF eXpress.” We strongly suggest that you use this service to create your PDF files. Manuscripts that are not IEEE Xplore-compatible will not be accepted in the Conference Record. In order to ensure a timely release of the DVD-ROM, please follow this procedure for the Conference Record manuscript submission: 1. Produce IEEE Xplore-compatible PDF file using PDF eXpress The IEEE PDF eXpress service will be available for the NSSMIC authors between Oct. 1 and Nov. 16, 2012. You need to enter nssmic12x as the conference ID, and set up an account on that system. You can upload your word processor file to the web site and have it converted to PDF. Shortly after your upload, an electronic proof in PDF format will be generated and emailed to you. You need to retrieve this IEEE Xplore-compatible file either from the PDF eXpress web site or from your email. You can also use this service to verify your own PDF file for Xplore-compatibility. Detailed instructions on the PDF eXpress service are available at http://www.nss-mic.org/2012/Public/ Publications/PDFeXpress.html. PDF eXpress is NOT the final destination for your manuscript. You must submit your manuscript to the Guest Editor following the step below. 2. Submit the Xplore-compatible PDF file and the IEEE Copyright Form Log on to the conference web site and follow the menu “My Submissions” to the abstract submission page. You will see both links for uploading your manuscript and submitting the copyright form electronically. Follow the instructions on the web site to complete both tasks. Your PDF file will be checked for Xplore-compatibility. Non-Xplore-compatible files will not be included in the DVD-ROM. If you are not authorized to submit the IEEE Copyright Form, please start the approval process well before the submission deadline. Publications 21 The deadline for the Conference Record manuscript submission is Nov. 16, 2012. All manuscripts submitted through the conference web site will be made available immediately at the “Conference Record” web link. However, only those that meet the following requirements will be included in the DVD-ROM: • Paper (oral or poster) has been presented at the conference; • Manuscript conforms to the page layout requirements specified in the online templates; • PDF file is IEEE Xplore-compatible; • PDF file and the electronic copyright form are received no later than the Nov. 16 deadline. For further information regarding the Conference Record, contact: Guest Editor for the Conference Record Bo Yu Brookhaven National Laboratory Phone: +1-631-344-5184 E-mail: yu@bnl.gov Transactions on Nuclear Science (TNS) Additionally, papers presented at the conference that contain important information of lasting value may be submitted for review and publication in the Transactions on Nuclear Science (TNS). The TNS is a premier peer-reviewed journal with a significant distribution within the nuclear science and medical imaging communities. TNS is not the conference record, and only those papers that pass the review process and are in the fields of interest to TNS will be published. Prospective authors should consult the TNS page at www.ieee.org for a description of the publication. TNS discourages the submission of progress reports and manuscripts that are more suitable for distribution as an institution’s internal document. We expect each manuscript to be cast in the context of the state of the art of its field (including appropriate motivation for the work), present a complete description of the work performed, and to present a set of conclusions supported by the measured and/or calculated data. The paper should be sufficiently complete that others with comparable equipment could repeat the work. Authors submitting to TNS should expect to be solicited to serve as reviewers of other papers. Please accept as many solicitations as you are able to handle and remember to return your reviews in a timely fashion. TNS tries to find at least two reviewers for each paper and the speed of the review process ultimately depends on your cooperation. TNS relies on this most important professional service you, the authors, provide to the community. TNS is published throughout the year, and you can submit your manuscript to TNS at any time. For instructions on TNS manuscript submissions, please visit the IEEE’s on-line peer review system ScholarOne Manuscripts™ (http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/tnsieee). TNS suggests that authors limit their papers to 8 pages, but that limit is quite flexible and exceptions can be made. 22 Publications Special instructions for RTSD authors: So that the RTSD papers may be collected in the August issue of TNS, RTSD papers should be submitted by Dec. 1. RTSD papers submitted after that date may not complete the review process by June 1, the deadline for the August issue. Those RTSD papers that complete the review process after June 1 will appear in later issues of TNS and be identified as originating in the RTSD Workshop.

It is possible that a similar (or even the same) article can be submitted to both the Conference Record and the TNS. However, the authors must keep in mind that the content of the articles designated for TNS publication must meet the level of scrutiny by scientific review, and publication is not guaranteed for the TNS submission. The CR and TNS are two separate publications. Submission to one does not imply submission to the other.

Short Course Program 27 SC2 - Nuclear Science for Nuclear Security Saturday, October 27, 08:30-17:00 Location: Magic Kingdom Ballroom 3 Organiser: Robert (Bob) Runkle, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, USA Instructors: Robert (Bob) Runkle, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, USA Daniel Stephens, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, USA Glen Warren, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, USA Course Description This one-day course will cover the application of nuclear science, most prominently radiation measurement and analysis methods, in the area of nuclear security that ranges from nuclear material accounting to illicit material trafficking to treaty verification. The intended audience consists of those who seek to understand the science and technology challenges unique to nuclear security missions. Existing commercial instruments will be briefly discussed but the course focuses on the role of nuclear technology in meeting mission needs and challenges faced by emerging technology to meet those needs. Prospective students with a general physics or engineering background but little preparation in the area of nuclear science are welcome but are encouraged to study the book Radiation Detection and Measurement by Glenn Knoll. To begin, we will define the scope of “nuclear security” as it pertains to this course, and the various missions that motivate the use of nuclear science. We will discuss the operational environments typically encountered and provide specific examples of technology implementation. To provide high-level context for technology developers, this includes the value of systems-level evaluations as a means to assess technology’s role. A generic discussion of nuclear signatures will be coupled to an overview of “backgrounds” in nuclear security environs (e.g. ambient background sources, naturally occurring radioactive materials (NORM)). The course will then cover the basic classes of passive gamma-ray and neutron detection instrumentation (including imaging techniques) and discuss how one makes field deployment decisions using this technology. We will elucidate the potential role of “active” interrogation techniques in addressing some of the most challenging nuclear security problems. Finally, the course will provide an overview of enabling and exploratory technologies that could result in key advancements for nuclear security applications in the future and address the changing focus of the nuclear security enterprise.

In this context, the revolution that has taken place during the last decade in genetics and molecular biology can be traced back to the development of techniques that enabled scientists to manipulate and analyze genetic material. These approaches, together with new data-gathering technologies such as genomics, proteomics and imaging, have a significant potential for translation into medically relevant knowledge. The success of this endeavor depends largely on the creation of an interactive, inter-disciplinary scientific culture in which experts in engineering, physics, chemistry, mathematics and computer science join biologists to ensure the efficient integration of new technologies. Opportunities for such inter-disciplinary interactions and relevant examples will be emphasized during this Molecular Biology course. Moreover, the course will attempt to illustrate fundamental concepts in Molecular Biology using specific examples of molecular mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis of human diseases in general and cancer in particular. Potential imaging applications to study such diseasecausing mechanisms will also be discussed. Course Outline 1.

SC6 - Medical Image Reconstruction Monday, October 29, 8:30-17:00 Location: Magic Kingdom Ballroom 3 Organiser: Jinyi Qi,University of California-Davis,USA Instructors: Michel Defrise, Vrije Universiteit Brussel, Belgium Frederic Noo, University of Utah, USA Jinyi Qi,University of California-Davis,USA Course Description Modern medical imaging systems can probe noninvasively anatomical and functional information in vivo. However, the measured raw data are related to the underlying image through a convolution transform. Image reconstruction is essential to translate the raw data to meaningful images. Over the past decades, many advances have been made in both analytical and iterative reconstruction techniques. Together with new instrumentation and computer hardware, these 34 Short Course Program developments have stimulated growing imaging applications in clinical and biomedical research. This course will provide an overview of tomographic image reconstruction methods. It will start with fundamental issues of image reconstruction and classical theories in computed tomography. It will then describe analytical image reconstruction algorithms in 2D parallel-beam and 3D cone-beam geometries. The third part of the course will cover iterative reconstruction techniques. It will review the maximum-likelihood and maximum a posteriori formulations and describe some of the most successful optimization algorithms. Prerequisite knowledge includes basic knowledge of the physics of emission and transmission imaging systems, statistics, calculus, and elementary linear algebra. Course Outline • Fundamentals and Classical Theories in Computed Tomography • Analytical Image Reconstruction Algorithms • Iterative Reconstruction Techniques Instructors' Biography Michel Defrise received the Ph.D. degree in theoretical physics from the University of Brussels in 1981, with a thesis devoted to photon-photon interactions in electron-positron storage rings. He was a visiting professor in the Department of Radiology of the University of Geneva in 1992-1993, working with David Townsend, Paul Kinahan and Christian Michel on the development of the 3D-PET methodology. He developed in particular the Fourier Rebinning Algorithm (FORE), as well as algorithms for cone-beam reconstruction in collaboration with Rolf Clackdoyle (CNRS), Frédéric Noo (U. of Utah) and Hiroyuki Kudo (U. of Tsukuba). With the same colleagues, he developed in 2002 algorithms allowing exact region of interest reconstruction from limited data. He is professor in the Department of Nuclear Medicine at the Vrije Universiteit Brussel (Free University Brussels) and his research interests still include 3-D image reconstruction in nuclear medicine (PET and SPECT) and in CT. He is Fellow of the Institute of Physics (UK), Fellow of the IEEE, and Associate Editor of IEEE Transactions on Nuclear Sciences. Frederic Noo is an Associate Professor of Radiology at the University of Utah. He holds adjunct appointments at the same level in Bioengineering, and also in Electrical and Computer Engineering. He is an IEEE member and an Associate Editor for IEEE Transactions on Medical Imaging. He has co-authored 59 peer-reviewed papers, and 91 conference records. His research interest encompasses all aspects of X-ray computed tomography (CT), including image reconstruction techniques. His research projects involve the development of advanced reconstruction techniques for multi-slice CT, for cardiac CT imaging of the whole heart using cone-beam data collection within a single heartbeat, and for cone-beam imaging in interventional radiology. One fundamental problem with conebeam tomography is the handling of truncation in the projections. Significant progress has been made on this problem over the last few years, but many problems remain. This issue is integral to his research projects, as well as that of task-based image quality assessment for optimization of reconstruction algorithms.

Perspectives on He-3 Replacements for Neutron Detection Friday, November 2, 14.00-18:30 Location: Magic Kingdom Ballroom 3 Organizing Committee: Ralf Engels, Forschungszentrum Juelich GmbH, Germany Richard Kouzes, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, USA This Workshop will focus on neutron detection methods and technologies for Dick Kouzes science and applications, in the age of a diminishing supply of He-3. One of the main uses for He-3 is in gas proportional counters for neutron detection, which are used for homeland security, nonproliferation, neutron scattering science, commercial instruments, and welllogging detectors. It is also used in Ralf Engels dilution refrigerators, targets or target cooling in research, and for basic research in condensed matter physics. Due to the large increase in these applications and no new sources, the supply can no longer meet the demand, and the He-3 stockpile is dwindling. The objective of this workshop is to provide a forum for discussion of the state of the art of neutron detection and the issues surrounding the current shortage of He-3. This workshop will present and discuss the latest developments for replacements. The emphasis will be on scientific/ technical developments in the following: • The He-3 supply limitations and possible supplies • Alternative neutron detector technology 42 Special Focus Workshops Special Focus Workshops 43 Special Events Special Women in Engineering (WIE) Session: Contribution of Women Scientists to Nuclear Science and Medical Imaging Wednesday, October 31, 16:30-18:30 Location: Sleeping Beauty Pavilion Organizer: Allan Johnston, NPSS Liaison to the IEEE Women in Engineering Special Interest Group I am pleased to welcome you to the 2012 Women in Engineering (WIE) Session.

Existing users of any of the three packages who are interested in presenting their work during the meeting should contact the User’s Meeting organisers by the 15th of September. 44 Special Events Reception for IEEE GOLD Members Thursday, November 1, 19:00-21:00, Location: Mark Twain Room IEEE GOLD (Graduates of the Last Decade) members are welcome to join a casual reception to be held on Thursday, November 1 from 19:00 to 21:00 in the Mark Twain Room. Attendance is free, but restricted to GOLD members and to conference attendees that join IEEE or the Nuclear and Plasma Sciences Society during the conference in Anaheim, in order to extend a special welcome to them and allow for networking right away. Christoph Ilgner In a comfortable, casual atmosphere, personal contact between the attendees can easily be established: After a short welcome address the participants will be invited to take some refreshments. A couple of speakers that can look back on their bright careers in both academia and industry will then give very brief summaries on what they have done to get where they are today. Also IEEE fellows will be among these speakers. Their statements will focus on aspects of successful career planning. Since these brief statements are meant to open the floor for peer-to-peer discussions among the participants, a lot of time will be available for this. Over the past years, the GOLD receptions at NSS-MIC and other IEEE-NPSS conferences have proven to foster direct contact between young professionals and colleagues at the zenith of their careers. So, if you are an IEEE GOLD member or have joined our society right here in Anaheim, you are cordially invited to participate. It is up to you to profit from the opportunities the GOLD reception offers. I look forward to welcoming you. Christoph Ilgner, GOLD Committee Chair OpenPET Users Group Meeting Thursday, November 1, 14:00-16:00, Location: Grand Ballroom South Organizer: Jennifer Huber, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, USA OpenPET is a general purpose, open source readout electronics system for high performance radionuclide imaging that is under development by LBNL. It consists of circuit boards, firmware and software for people that are building prototype PET and SPECT imagers.

You can find more information about OpenPET at http://openpet.lbl.gov/. Special Events 45 Linear Collider Event The recent discovery of a particle at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN, consistent with the long-thought Higgs boson, provides a very clear target for near-future linear collider experiments. A next generation Linear Collider (LC) is currently being designed as the next large-scale experimental facility in elementary particle physics beyond the LHC. It is intended to offer a perfect environment to elucidate the nature of a Higgs particle and allows for precision studies to be conducted that may reveal the next energy scale of physics to be targeted by future big machines. With the news of the Higgs, public interest in particle physics in general, and the LC in particular, is at an all-time high. Therefore, this year the organizers have chosen to arrange a Special Linear Collider (LC) Event in addition to their nominal IEEE NSS program. The aim of the special event is to bring together academic, industry, and laboratory-based experts on accelerator and detector technologies and applications. It is an excellent opportunity to discuss linear collider technologies with the accelerator and instrumentation community at large. Particle accelerators are widely perceived as tools for mankind in the service of science. The International Linear Collider (ILC), which is distributed among many labs, and the Compact Linear Collider (CLIC), centered at CERN, are both global projects that would collide electrons and positrons at TeV energies. However, they have different technologies, different time scales, and different energy extensibility. The two-day LC event will: summarize the state-of-the-art of ILC and the CLIC accelerator and detector concepts; include presentations on the impact of LC technologies for different applications; provide a forum for discussion about LC perspectives. Special attention will be given to the sessions where potential spinoffs of LC accelerator and detector technologies are discussed. In particular, they will include presentations on how accelerator technology developed by the nation’s laboratories and universities could directly translate into a competitive strength for industrial partners, as well as advance applications of accelerators for use in service to society. The status of the Advanced Accelerator Association Promoting Science and Technology (from the perspective of ‘industrygovernment-academia collaboration’ motivated by AAA, Japan) will be also reported. In the field of detector instrumentation, many spinoffs from ILC detector R&D look valuable for other particle physics detectors, and for detectors in other fields, in particular medical imaging (e.g. novel multi-modality designs in positron emission tomography). The Linear Collider Forum Discussion will bring together directors of the world-wide High Energy Physics Laboratories and leading experts in LC technologies, both from the academic research sector and industry, to provide an interactive discussion and insight into the long-term technology roadmap for the Linear Collider Facility construction. We are looking forward to seeing you in Anaheim ! 46 Linear Collider Event Program Committee of the “Linear Collider Event”: Jim Brau, University of Oregon, USA Juan Fuster, IFIC Valencia, Spain Ingrid-Maria Gregor, DESY Hamburg, Germany Michael Harrison, BNL, USA Marc Ross, FNAL, USA Steinar Stapnes, CERN, Switzerland Maxim Titov, CEA Saclay, France Nick Walker, DESY Hamburg, Germany Akira Yamamoto, KEK, Japan, Hitoshi Yamamoto, Tohoku University, Japan Program and Abstracts LC1: Introduction Monday, Oct. 29,14:00-15:40, Grand Ballroom Center LC1-1 (14:00, invited): Welcome to the Special Linear Collider Event R.-D. Heuer, CERN, Geneva, Switzerland LC1-2 (14:10, invited): Brief Overview of the ILC History and Milestones, Summary of ILC TDR, Perspectives B. Barish, California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, USA LC1-3 (14:25, invited): Brief Overview of the CLIC History and Milestones, Summary of CLIC CDR, Perspectives S. Stapnes, CERN, Switzerland LC1-4 (14:40, invited): Physics of the Linear Colliders H. Murayama, LBNL, Berkeley, CA, USA and Kavli Institute for the Physics and Mathematics of the Universe (IPMU), Tokyo, Japan Recent discovery of a particle that looks like a Higgs boson provides a very clear target for the near-future linear collider. I will review the capabilities of a low-energy linear collider in elucidating the nature of this new particle. I will emphasize that a precision study may reveal the next energy scale of physics to be targeted by a later big machine. LC1-5 (15:10, invited): Overview of Detectors for the Linear Collider H. Yamamoto, Tohoku University, Japan At an e+ e- linear collider, the 4-momentum and the spin state of the initial state can be well controlled and the environment of interactions are clean. Taking advantage of these experimental conditions, a linear collider provides unique physics opportunities for the detailed studies of the Higgs particle. In order to fully exploit the physics potential, the detectors need to have resolutions that far exceed the past state-of-the-art. Intensive R&D activities have been conducted to meet the requirements and they promoted great advances in the field. In this brief talk, I will review such efforts in detector R&Ds. LC2: ILC/CLIC Accelerator and Detector Concepts Monday, Oct. 29, 16:30-18:40, Grand Ballroom Center LC2-1 (16:30, invited): The Superconducting RF Acceleration and the International Linear Collider N. Walker, DESY, Hamburg, Germany The benefits of using superconducting radio-frequency (SCRF) acceleration for an electron-positron linear collider have been well documented over the years. The ultra-low cavity wall losses allow the use of long RF pulses, greatly simplifying the RF source, while facilitating high-efficiency acceleration of high-current beams. In addition the low RF frequency (1.3 GHz) significantly Linear Collider Event 47 reduces the impedance of the cavities, leading to reduced beam dynamics effects and relatively relaxed alignment tolerances. Over two decades of R&D has lead to an increase in the deployed available gradient of over a factor of six, which, together with a high level of cavity integration into single cryostat (cryomodule) has resulted in an affordable and mature accelerator technology. Following a unique decision in 2004 by the world high energy physics community to develop the International Linear Collider (ILC) based on the established SCRF technology as a truly global project, the Global Design Effort (GDE) has successfully coordinated a worldwide R&D programme which will culminate in the ILC Technical Design Report in 2013. This presentation will chart the history of the SCRF linear collider, with a focus on the quest for higher gradients (35 MV/m and beyond), the ‘globalisation’ of the technology, and the preparation for a worldwide industrial base for the construction of the ILC. LC2-2 (17:10, invited): X-Band Acceleration, Two-Beam Acceleration, and the Compact Linear Collider D. Schulte, CERN, Geneva, Switzerland The Compact Linear Collider (CLIC) Collaboration is developing a multi-TeV linear electron-positron collider for future high energy physics experiments; it has recently published a conceptual design report. The concept is based on the use of 12GHz normal conducting accelerating structures, which allow high gradients and hence a cost effective machine. To minimise cost a novel two-beam scheme is used to power the accelerating structures rather than conventional klystrons. Key technical choices are specified and the status of the technology is discussed. The on-going work-programme and studies towards an implementation plan for the CLIC project will also be briefly covered. LC2-3 (17:50, invited): State-of-the-art in Vertex Detectors for LC M. Winter, CNRS/IN2P3, IPHC Strasbourg, Strasbourg, France The Linear Collider physics programme assumes high performance flavour tagging capabilities, particularly in terms of displaced vertex reconstruction originating from charm-quark and tau-lepton decays. A new generation vertex detector, featuring unprecedented spatial resolution and material budget, is therefore developed since several years, based on novel pixel technologies. The talk will overview the status of the different R&D activities, compare their achievements with the ILC and CLIC specifications and summarise their perspectives. LC2-4 (18:15, invited): State-of-the-art in Silicon Tracking for LC T. Nelson, SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, USA During the past few years, the concepts and technologies for solid state tracking at the ILC have matured to the point where they are largely ready for implementation. Meanwhile, the advent of the CLIC detector concepts has introduced some additional challenges, pushing the evolution of these designs and technologies even further. The status of silicon tracking for the ILC detector concepts will be discussed, along with the new challenges that must be met for CLIC and some thoughts about how to achieve the remaining goals. LC3: ILC/CLIC Detector Concepts and Summary of Detector Spin-Offs Tuesday, Oct. 30, 08:00-10:00, Grand Ballroom South AB LC3-1 (08:00, invited): State-of-the-art in Gaseous Tracking for LC T. Matsuda, KEK/IPNS, Japan R&D for a high-precision TPC is ongoing in the international ILC-TPC collaboration. The main topics are the construction of a low material-budget field cage and the development of gas amplification end-plates using GEM or Micromegas. In this talk we discuss the state-of-art in gaseous tracking detector for LC, in particular, the concept and the current status of R&D of MPGD TPC for LC. 48 Linear Collider Event LC3-2 (08:25, invited): State-of-the-art in Electromagnetic Calorimetry for LC J.-C. Brient, CNRS/IN2P3, Paris, France The physics program at a future linear collider requires a novel design of the electromagnetic calorimeter (ECAL), very different to equivalent detectors used at the LHC. The Particle Flow Approach (PFA) to jet reconstruction implies an ECAL whose primary goal is to identify individual particle showers in the dense environment of high energy hadronic jets. This consideration leads an ultra granular device with many readout layers and small pixel size. Possible technological solutions and their respective advantages and drawbacks will be discussed. LC3-3 (08:50, invited): State-of-the-art in Hadronic Calorimetry for LC J. Repond, Argonne National Laboratory, USA To fully exploit the physics potential of a future Lepton Collider will require unprecedented jet energy and (di)-mass resolution. Currently two complementary approaches are being pursued to achieve this goal: Particle Flow Algorithms (PFAs) and Dual Readout (DR) calorimetry. The former requires imaging calorimeters with extremely fine spatial segmentation. The latter requires the measurement and identification of both scintillation and Cerenkov light in the calorimeter. This talk reviews the main developments in hadron calorimetry geared towards implementation in a future Lepton Collider detector. The talk covers recent results from the large prototypes of the CALICE collaboration, such as the Scintillator Analog Hadron Calorimeter (AHCAL) and the Digital Hadron Calorimeters (DHCAL and SDHCAL), as well as results from the various development projets. LC3-4 (09:15, invited): State-of-the-art in Forward Calorimetry and other Miscellaneous Detector Applications S. Kulis, AGH University of Science and Technology, Cqracow, Poland A report will be given about the design of the very forward calorimeters, their functionality, and the performance of prototype sensor planes assembled with dedicated FE ASICs in test beams. These sensor planes constitute the key components to built compact and finely segmented sampling calorimeters as prototypes of very forward calorimeters. Also the R&D on special detectors for muon identification is summarised. LC3-5 (09:30, invited): Summary of the Spin-off Document “ILC Detector R&D: its Impact” M. Demarteau, Argonne National Laboratory, Argonne, USA Although the actual construction date of the ILC accelerator and its detectors is uncertain, the impact of the R&D for ILC detectors is very real. The deep impact of the work initiated by and carried out within the ILC detector community on the particle physics community and beyond will be discussed. LC4: ILC/CLIC Detector Spin-offs and ILC/ CLIC Accelerator Instrumentation Tuesday, Oct. 30, 10:30-12:30, Grand Ballroom South AB LC4-1 (10:30, invited): From ILC Imaging Calorimeter to a PET Detector E. Garutti, Faculty of Mathematics, Informatics and Natural Sciences, University of Hamburg, Hamburg, Germany From imaging calorimeters for particle physics to imaging cancerous cells in a human body, the detector technologies established for particle flow calorimeters at linear collider detectors enable unprecedented spatial resolution and novel multi-modality designs in positron emission tomography detector. A brief overview is given of the current medical projects profiting from ILC research. LC4-2 (11:00, invited): LC Spin-offs Outside Medical Imaging C. De La Taille, IN2P3/CNRS, Paris, France Detectors designed for particle-flow calorimetry at the Linear Collider will feature unprecedented granularity (tens of millions of channels) to reconstruct the “image” of showers and accurately reconstruct them. With embedded ultra Linear Collider Event 49 low power readout electronics, they allow to design large area smart detectors. Various technologies have been studied over the last ten years, from highly granular Resistive Plate Chambers or MicroMegas and Gems, to Silicon PM scintillating tiles or large area PIN diodes. These “square meter” detectors or their readout electronics with accurate charge and time measurement not only find applications in medical imaging but also in muon tomography for volcano studies (MuRay or TOMUVOL projects), astrophysics experiments (PEBS) and Nuclear physics (HN diffusion). Future perspectives will be also discussed. LC4-3 (11:30, invited): Linear Collider Instrumentation T. Lefevre, CERN, Geneva, Switzerland Linear collider relies on tight beam parameters while colliding short bunches focused down to nanometer beam sizes. The conservation of ultra-low emittances requires a precise control of the beam alignment over very long distances. The talk will present the state of the art in Linear collider beam instruments, with an emphasis on non-invasive techniques. LC4-4 (11:50, invited): Linear Collider Module Control and Stabilization A. Jeremie, CNRS/IN2P3, LAPP, Paris, France A future linear collider will rely of having the possibility to monitor and control reliably a significant number of key module and environmental parameters along its full length. Novel module data acquisition systems based on integrated radiation hard and low power readout electronics are being studied, including systems and methods for stabilisation of key elements of the machine to a very high precision. LC4-5 (12:10, invited): Alignment Challenges for a Future Linear Collider H. Schmickler, CERN, Geneva, Switzerland The alignment and stability requirements for a future linear collider are very demanding. The talk will cover the specifications and solutions being studied for pre- aligning and aligning linear collider elements within the CLIC and ILC projects. LC5: ILC/CLIC Accelerator Technologies for Industrial Applications I Tuesday, Oct. 30, 14:00-16:05, Grand Ballroom South AB LC5-1 (14:00, invited): Opportunities for Applications of LC Technology (Institutional Perspective) M. C. Ross, SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, Palo Alto, CA, USA Particle accelerators are widely perceived as tools for mankind in the service of science. The next generation will see applications of accelerators broadly expanded and adapted for use in service to society. This transition has been enabled by an era of work to extend the frontiers of technology in terms of performance, reliability and cost. The surprising richness of the micro-universe has motivated accelerator builders over the last few decades to push their art to the limits and we now begin to doubt if these limits have been reached and if machines much larger than LHC, ILC or CLIC are realistic. The term ‘hightechnology’ characterizes work on linear colliders and related accelerators, and generally indicates a high level of investment and return on investment (ROI), in other words: high risk. Following the unique decision in 2004 by the world high energy physics community to develop the International Linear Collider an unprecedented degree of global focus and participation allowed this investment in, for example, superconducting RF technology and precision beam control. As we now move forward to realize the linear collider, it is time to consider the ROI, especially toward industrial applications. In this talk we will review this remarkable era and consider the next steps to be taken toward applying what has been learned. LC5-2 (14:25, invited): Overview of Industrial, Medical, Energy and Security Related Accelerator Use (Industry Perspective) N. Holtkamp, SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, USA 50 Linear Collider Event Based on the 2009 workshop “Accelerators for America’s Future,” (AfAF) an assessment was made on how accelerator technology developed by the nation’s laboratories and universities could directly translate into a competitive strength for industrial partners and a variety of government agencies in the research, defense and national security sectors. The workshop report provides comprehensive and up to date information with respect to the broad applications of accelerators. In addition in September 2011 the US Senate Appropriations Committee requested a ten-year strategic plan from the Department of Energy (DOE) that would describe how accelerator R&D today could advance applications directly relevant to society in those fields. An overview of the applications and an assessment where DOE funded national laboratories and their programs can have a major impact will be described. LC5-3 (14:50, invited): Applications of Superconducting RF Linear Accelerators (Industry Perspective) J. Rathke, Advanced Energy Systems, Princeton, NJ, USA This paper will discuss the criteria for use of SRF technology for industrial applications i.e. when does it make sense to use SRF. Criteria such as capital costs, operating costs and space considerations will be covered. Based on these criteria applications such as flue gas and water treatment as well as most medical applications do not meet the criteria. Applications such as isotope production, defense and ADS do. LC5-4 (15:15, invited): Applications of Normal-Conducting RF Linear Accelerators (Industry Perspective) W. Wuensch, CERN, Geneva, Switzerland Normal conducting linacs are used in a wide variety of industrial applications. Basic RF parameter choices, such as peak input power and accelerating gradient, are influenced by a number of factors but are often conservatively matched to performances achieved in other machines. Now the normal conducting linear collider R&D programs have led to practical accelerating gradients above 100 MV/m. How might this result influence future industrial accelerators? The field of normal conducting industrial accelerators is reviewed and the possibilities of benefiting from linear collider R&D are considered. LC5-5 (15:50, invited): Applications of Linear Collider Supporting RF Technology (Industry Perspective) S. Lenci, Communications & Power Industries LLC, Palo Alto, CA, USA The presentation will provide an overview of RF Technology that supports Linear Colliders, as various RF sources (klystrons and IOT’s), components (Power Couplers and Barrier Windows), and other related technology. It will include a future outlook towards future devices and the use of similar technologies in a wider research and industry perspective. LC6: ILC/CLIC Accelerator Technologies for Industrial Applications II Tuesday, Oct. 30, 16:30-17:30, Grand Ballroom South AB LC6-1 (16:30, invited): Applications of Linear Collider Supporting Instrumentation Technology (Industry Perspective) M. Ross, SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, USA The recently - published Department of Energy Report ‘ Accelerators for America’s Future’ (http://www.acceleratorsamerica.org/report/index.html), lists Reliability, Beam Power/RF and Beam Transport and Control as the top R & D needs for various accelerator applications. While it is unlikely the Grand Challenges formulated in response to the report will target these needs specifically, we can expect follow-on work to focus on these top R & D needs as high-priority by-products. Instrumentation of different kinds is used to support the operation of modern accelerators through beam measurements, component monitoring and control and RF feedback and will therefore have a strong role in this work. The example of RF feedback, to be presented in this talk, uses leading-edge technology digital signal processing to achieve the required stabilization. Other examples to be discussed include radiation effects Linear Collider Event 51 on electronics (LHC and ILC), low latency feedback (ILC / CLIC), ultra-low noise receivers (ILC) and mechanical stabilization systems (CLIC). LC6-2 (16:55, invited): The status of Advanced Accelerator Association Promoting Science and Technology M. Matsuoka, Secretary General, Advanced Accelerator Association Promoting Science & Technology, Tokio, Japan Advanced Accelerator Association Promoting Science and Technology (AAA) was established in June 2008 in Japan. The functions of AAA are to facilitate Industry- Government-Academia collaboration and to promote and seek various industrial applications of advanced accelerator and technologies derived from R&D on such accelerator. International Linear Collider (ILC) is one of the main themes of our study. Members of AAA have increased to 90 companies and 38 academic institutions since starting our activity. We held 11 times symposiums to gain broad public understanding of ILC and other accelerators. And our members of industry side have been studying the accelerator technologies and their applications in collaboration with the academia members. Some R&D project started by virtue of this activity. The detail of these activities will be presented. LC7: Forum Discussion about LC perspectives Tuesday, Oct. 30, 17:30-18:30, Grand Ballroom South AB Rolf-Dieter Heuer, CERN, Switzerland, Joachim Mnich, DESY, Germany, Atsuto Suzuki, KEK, Japan, Pier Oddone, FNAL, USA 52 Linear Collider Event Nuclear Science Symposium - NSS Maxim Titov Ingrid-Maria Gregor T The Nuclear Science Symposium (NSS) offers an outstanding opportunity for scientists and engineers interested in the fields of nuclear science, radiation detection, accelerators, high energy physics and astrophysics, and related software to present their latest developments and ideas. The scientific program provides a comprehensive review of the latest developments in technology and covers a wide range of applications from radiation and accelerator instrumentation, new detector materials, to complex detector systems for physical sciences, and advanced imaging systems for biological and medical research. Having received over 850 abstracts from colleagues working on numerous NSS topics, we have organized the NSS program from Monday to Friday, with four parallel sessions running at the same time. This year’s program consists of 353 oral and 480 poster papers, which are presented in three plenary sessions, 44 NSS oral parallel sessions, and two poster sessions. The daily program includes two 2-hour sessions in the morning (08:00-12:30) and two 2-hour sessions (14:00-18:30) in the afternoon. Among the highlights of the symposium will be two NSS Plenary Sessions on Monday, October 29, 2012 (08:30-12:00) and one on Friday, November 2, 2012 (10:30-12:30), where leading experts in our fields will shed a light on the most outstanding current and future research frontiers. The NSS Plenary Sessions will feature: • Prof. Dr. Rolf-Dieter Heuer on “The High Energy Frontier: Past, Present, and Future” • Prof. Dr. Martin Pohl on “Recent Highlights from the AMS Cosmic Ray Observatory on the International Space Station” • Dr. Edward Moses on “The National Ignition Facility and Fusion Ignition: Status and Progress” • Dr Steve Holmes on “Project-X: A Powerful Facility for Particle Physics and Beyond” The Monday Plenary Sessions will be followed by the traditional NSS Luncheon (12:00-14:00) during which Industrial Light and Magic visual effects master John Knoll will provide a fascinating glimpse into the science and technology of motion picture animations and computer graphics. On Tuesday, contributions bridging the fields of nuclear science, Nuclear Science Symposium - NSS 53 medical imaging, and solid-state radiation detectors will be presented in one dedicated NSS/MIC/RTSD joint session and one NSS/MIC joint session (14:00 to 16:00, and 16:30 to 18:30). A joint NSS/ RTSD session is also planned on Friday (08:00-10:00). To emphasize the importance of poster presentations, NSS posters will be accessible from Monday morning to Wednesday evening, with no NSS oral presentation sessions during the 2-hour dedicated poster sessions. Based on the positive feedback from previous years, we will again have refresher courses during the lunch breaks. The recent discovery of a particle at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN, consistent with the long-thought Higgs boson, provides a very clear target for near-future linear collider experiments. Therefore, this year we have chosen to arrange a Special two-day Linear Collider (LC) Event in addition to their nominal IEEE NSS program. The aim of the special event is to bring together academic, industry, and laboratory-based experts on accelerator and detector technologies and applications. It is an excellent opportunity to discuss linear collider technologies with the accelerator and instrumentation community at large. We would like to thank all of the authors of the scientific contributions, which form the true and crucial basis for this important event, as well as all conference attendees. We would also like to thank the 330 reviewers who contributed valuable time and effort to read and assess submitted papers. Our special thanks go to more than 40 NSS Topic Conveners for their tireless efforts in organizing the symposium program along the lines of the scientific topics and completing the program within the scheduled time despite the very large number of submitted abstracts. More detailed information on the program, the Plenary Speakers, the Linear Collider Event, and the Refresher Courses can be found in this booklet and is available on the conference website (www.nss-mic. org/2012). Please feel free and encouraged to contact us for feedback, suggestions, and questions, by sending an email to nss2012@desy.de. We sincerely hope you will enjoy the exciting 2012 IEEE NSS/ MIC/RTSD and are looking forward to meeting you in Anaheim, California in October this year.

The LHC will provide a deeper understanding of the universe and the insights gained could change our view of the world. By colliding unparalleled high energy and high-intensity beams, the LHC is opening up previously unexplored territory at the TeV scale in great detail, allowing the experiments to probe deeper inside matter. Rolf Heuer The LHC is expected to yield insights into the origin of mass, the nature of dark matter and the existence of hidden extra dimensions. The talk will address the exciting physics prospects offered by the LHC and present latest results, in particular the recent discovery of a new ‘Higgs-like’ Boson. The LHC will provide first indications of new physics at energies up to several TeV. These results will be decisive in indicating the direction that particle physics will take in the future. The talk will conclude with this look forward and discuss new projects at the energy frontier in Particle Physics.

NP2-1: Recent Highlight from the AMS Cosmic Ray Observatory on the International Space Station Martin Pohl Center for Astroparticle Physics, CAP Genève University of Geneva, Switzerland Monday, October 29, 10:30-11:15, Grand Ballroom Center Abstract The AMS-02 cosmic ray observatory is a-state-of-the-art particle detector for long-term observation of cosmic rays in the GeV to TeV region. It consists of a magnetic spectrometer, high performance particle identification systems and a calorimeter. It was launched successfully on May 16, 2011 on board of Space Shuttle Endeavor and installed on the International Space Station (ISS) shortly afterwards. Since then, it has been taking data continuously. The commissioning phase of the detector is finished, all subsystems are up and running and perform according to specifications. Detector operation is performed from the Payload Operations and Control Center (POCC) at CERN. Science data are timely transmitted to ground, stored and analyzed using the Science Operation Center (SOC), also installed at CERN. The alignment and calibration of the detector and its subsystems are progressing well. First preliminary results are available. A very rich physics program is thus starting, which will last at least until 2020, with 16 billion cosmic rays collected per year. In this talk, I will review the design, construction and performance of the detector, with special emphasis on constraints coming from the hostile space environment. I will present inflight experience with the detector and its subsystems, as well as first results concerning the physics of cosmic rays in near-earth orbit. Biography Pohl studied physics at RWTH Aachen (Germany) in the 1970s, where he obtained his diploma and Ph.D. with studies of neutrinos with bubble chambers at CERN (Geneva, Martin Pohl Switzerland). He then moved on to the electron-positron experiment MARK-J at the PETRA collider (DESY, Hamburg) in the 80s. From 1984 to 2001 56 NSS Plenary Talks he was a senor physicist at ETH Zürich (Switzerland) working on the L3 experiment at the Large Electron-Positron collider LEP (CERN, Geneva).

NP2-2: The National Ignition Facility and Fusion Ignition: Status and Progress Edward Moses Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, USA Monday, October 29, 11:15-12:00, Grand Ballroom Center Abstract The National Ignition Facility (NIF) at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) is the world’s most energetic laser system. NIF has been operational since late 2009 and is routinely operating at 1.6 MJ of 3ω light with very high reliability and has reached its design goal of 1.8 MJ and 500 TW in the ultraviolet. The energy level is approximately 100x the capability of any other laser of its kind. In addition, its capabilities as a scientific instrument have continually increased with over 50 X-ray, optical and nuclear diagnostic systems and the ability to shoot cryogenic targets with neutron yield. A variety of experiments have also been completed and many more are planned in support of NIF’s mission areas in national security, fundamental science, and fusion energy. The National Ignition Campaign (NIC), an international effort with the goal of demonstrating thermonuclear burn in the laboratory, has been making steady progress toward achieving ignition, and implosions with Edward Moses NSS Plenary Talks 57 record indirect-drive neutron yield of 7.5 × 1014 neutrons have been achieved. Other experiments have been completed in support of highenergy science, materials equation of state, and materials strength. In all cases, records of extreme temperatures and pressures, highest neutron yield and highest energy densities have been achieved. This talk will describe the unprecedented experimental capabilities of the NIF, the pathway to achieving fusion ignition, the plan to build on this progress toward a clean energy future, fundamental science experiments underway and our plans to transition NIF to an international user facility providing access to researchers around the world.

He has been honored with five Academy Award nominations for Visual Effects Supervising on “Star Wars: Episode I The Phantom Menace”, “Star Wars: Episode II Attack of the Clones”, and the Pirates of the Caribbean films, including “Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest”, for which he received both a BAFTA and an Academy Award®. Since then, he supervised ILM’s visual effects for James Cameron’s “Avatar”, “Rango”, and “Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol.” Adding to his vast array of credits is the co-authorship of Photoshop, which Knoll created with his brother in 1987. John Knoll Abstract When filmmakers wish to tell stories about times, places or events that are not possible or practical to photograph “for real”, they turn to visual effects to manufacture the imagery. No matter how fantastic the story that is being told, the filmmaker desires the imagery to feel authentic. As the tools have evolved in an attempt to satisfy these desires, filmmakers have exploited these new capabilities to tell bigger and more fantastic stories. The human visual system is sophisticated and our brains are good at extracting information from pictures. Much of the progress in visual effects over the last few decades has been in attempting to understand and realistically simulate natural phenomena, everything from light transport through a scene, to the way cloth folds or fluid flows. These simulation techniques provide a great deal of realistic (or at least plausible) detail that goes a long way towards towards convincing the brain that what we are seeing is real. In this talk I will show some of the techniques that are employed to manufacture authentic looking imagery. Biography John Knoll’s interest in filmmaking began at an early age. Having a keen interest in visual effects, Knoll was mesmerized by the original “Star Wars.” During a visit to George Lucas’ visual effects studio Industrial Light & Magic in 1978 he was able to observe first-hand the world of visual effects. Inspired to learn more, Knoll attended the USC School of Cinema and earned a Bachelor of Arts in Cinema Production, while freelancing as a modelmaker at a variety of Los Angeles-based production facilities. Knoll joined ILM as a camera assistant in 1986. After three years in the camera department, Knoll worked on the ground breaking digital effects for “The Abyss”. Since that time, he has been promoted to Visual Effects Supervisor, helming the visual effects on more than 60 NSS Luncheon Talk NSS Luncheon Talk 61 NSS Refresher Courses Silicon Detectors Helmuth Spieler, LBL, Berkeley ,USA Tuesday October 30, 12:45-13:45, Magic Kingdom 2 Silicon detectors are used in a wide range of applications, often with very different requirements. In classic nuclear physics they provided energy measurements and identified isotopes and their mass. In high energy physics they are now widely used as tracking detectors in systems with millions of channels and also for scintillation measurements in large-scale calorimeters. In astronomy and astrophysics they have played a major role in supernova searches and also increase sensitivity in weak star detection. Astronomy gamma-ray measurements have gained significantly in the Fermi space telescope by building on detectors designed for high-energy physics. In medical imaging, positron emission tomography (PET) can use secondary silicon detectors to yield high position resolution and time resolution. X-ray imaging yields intensity and position vs. time to follow interactions in medical isotope injection. Some key developments are now proceeding in atomic physics and molecular interaction measurements at accelerator-based high-intensity X-ray and photon sources. Silicon detector systems have also yielded novel results in electron microscopy. Although the requirements of these different applications vary greatly, the basic physics is the same and understanding how this affects the signals often leads to appropriate designs. Micron-level design and monolithic integration offer many options. Another key component is the electronic readout and here it is also just as important to understand the various functions and how they should be adapted to the overall system requirements. Additional aspects also come into play, for example, radiation damage, overall power consumption, and material distribution in the large-scale high-energy physics detectors. In many applications the key is not to optimize just one aspect, but to arrive at an appropriate compromise, perhaps in a novel form. This is often a major problem, as many designs are driven by generally accepted recipes, which have often led to “expert” claims that new applications can’t work, although now they are taken for granted. This summary talk will describe different applications, key aspects of the sensors and electronics, and how the overall system design optimizes the results. Additional information is available at www-physics.LBL.gov~spieler. makes them indispensable for the search for New Physics. Ongoing technological developments are changing these devices, from rather coarse detectors to highly granular precision instruments. Novel measurement and reconstruction approaches promise dramatically improved energy resolution for hadronic states, and the addition of precise timing increases the spatial resolution in medical imaging and turns particle physics calorimeters into 4D detectors with powerful background rejection capabilities. This refresher course will provide a brief introduction to the art of energy measurements of electromagnetic and hadronic particles, and discuss state of the art technologies and future developments. Particular emphasis will be placed on new technologies that enable compact, high resolution PET systems and on ideas for next generation calorimeters in high-energy physics that push the limits on single particle and on jet energy resolution. GEANT 4 Maria Grazia Pia CERN, Switzerland Thursday November 1, 12:45-13:45, Magic Kingdom 2 This Refresher Course overviews Geant4 main features, with emphasis on Geant4 physics modeling capabilities and their use in Monte Carlo simulation applications. The selection of physics processes and models to be used in a simulation is one of the most critical tasks of Geant4 experimental applications. Geant4 users are responsible for configuring the physics of their simulation, since Geant4 does not provide any default physics settings. The configuration of a user application requires in-depth knowledge of Geant4 physics functionality to identify appropriate processes and models, and understanding of their validity to estimate the reliability and accuracy of the simulation results. This Geant4 simulation domain is by far the most difficult to master, not only for novice users, but also for more experienced ones, due to its intrinsic complexity and the large number of available options in the toolkit. This Refresher Course reviews Geant4 simulation capabilities and physics modeling options; it summarizes the current status of Geant4 physics validation and provides guidance to deal with Geant4 physics selection in experimental applications. Calorimeters Frank Simon MPI Munich, Germany Wednesday October 31, 12:45-13:45, Magic Kingdom 2 The measurement of particle energies with calorimeters is a crucial part of particle physics experiments, and the basis of modern diagnostics with positron emission tomography. In experiments at the energy frontier of particle physics, calorimeters also serve as key detectors for the reconstruction of hadronic jets and overall event energy, which 62 NSS Refresher Courses NSS Refresher Courses 63 Medical Imaging Conference - MIC The early morning refresher course tradition will continue, and we have gathered prominent speakers from a variety of areas, ranging from advances in light detectors techniques to ultrasound imaging, to provide an overview of the latest developments in the respective areas. The MIC dinner banquet will encourage socializing; given the entertainment atmosphere intrinsic to the location we decided against an after dinner talk to allow the participants to enjoy the local attractions. I Vesna Sossi Alex Converse t is our great pleasure to welcome you to the 2012 Medical Imaging Conference in Anaheim, California. The conference center is located in the heart of Disneyland and hosts comfortable meeting facilities conducive to stimulating discussions in a pleasant and relaxed atmosphere. This is the foremost conference dedicated to radionuclide-based imaging, where the latest trends and ideas are presented and discussed. This year we received a near record 755 abstracts and are grateful to the many dedicated reviewers who generously donated their time to ensure high meeting standards through a rigorous review process. The conference offers over one hundred oral presentations, an opening plenary session, four non-parallel and five parallel oral sessions. We selected the parallel sessions in such a way as to attempt to minimize overlapping interests. Abstracts from the themes with the largest number of contributions, reflecting the trends of most interest in the field, were assigned to the non-parallel sessions. We will have four parallel poster sessions and posters will be on display for the entire duration of the MIC meeting to allow ample time for poster viewing. Recent years have seen increased use of radionuclide imaging in conjunction with complementary imaging techniques, so we will have one session dedicated to ‘other’ imaging modalities and one to the use of radionuclide-based imaging techniques in radiotherapy. And finally a sincere thanks to all the contributors who keep the standard of this conference high and continue gathering year after year while introducing the next generation to this exciting field. Thanks also to the General Chair and all the other organizers who work tirelessly to make this conference such a continuing success. We hope that you will enjoy this meeting as much as those from the previous years and are very much looking forward to seeing you in Anaheim. Vesna Sossi MIC Program Chair Alex Converse MIC Program Deputy Chair Tuesday will be dedicated to three joint oral sessions: an MIC/RTSD in the early morning followed by an MIC/NSS and an NSS/MIC/ RTSD in the afternoon. The content of the abstracts selected for these joint session was considered of interest and relevance to all three communities. MIC attendees might also be interested in the late Tuesday morning sessions of the Linear Collider Workshop as especially relevant to medical applications. The official opening of the MIC will be on Wednesday morning starting with two plenary talks, given by outstanding scientists who use imaging in two different areas, health and astronomical exploration. The first plenary talk, entitled ‘Multi-modality Imaging and the Future of Alzheimer’s Disease’ will be given by Dr. William Jagust, Professor of Public Health and Neuroscience at the University of California, Berkeley. The second plenary talk, entitled ‘Practising “Astromedicine”: Lessons in Imaging and Inversion from a Rocket Scientist’, will be given by Dr. Jaymie Matthews, Professor of Astrophysics from the University of British Columbia. The second opening plenary session will be dedicated to the Hoffman and Hasegawa Awards ceremony followed by four oral presentations that were highly rated by the reviewers. 64 Medical Imaging Conference - MIC Medical Imaging Conference - MIC 65 MIC Plenary Talks M01-1: Multi-modality Imaging and the Future of Alzheimer’s Disease William Jagust University of California, Berkeley & Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, USA Wednesday, Oct. 31, 08:30-09:15, Grand Ballroom Center Abstract Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a major challenge for developed societies experiencing growth of older populations. Despite extensive knowledge of biochemical mechanisms underlying the disorder, several major clinical trials of Alzheimer therapeutics targeting these mechanisms have recently failed. This situation has forced a rethinking of the sequence of events underlying AD, and suggested new approaches to drug development. Brain imaging, especially PET, has played a key role in this process. We now have PET imaging agents that bind to beta-amyloid, the protein that many believe to be a key initiating event in AD and which aggregates to form the AD plaque detected at autopsy. PET imaging has shown deposition of beta-amyloid in cognitively healthy older people as well as patients with AD, and revealed both structural and functional changes in the brains of normal older people that are related to amyloid deposition. This has supported a view in which amyloid deposition begins many years – probably decades – before disease symptoms start, during which time neurodegenerative processes slowly advance. Amyloid deposition, brain atrophy, and decline in glucose metabolism, can be detected in living people and linked to symptom progression and disease stage. Taken together, the findings suggest that intervention at presymptomatic stages may be necessary to have an effect on the disease. Such approaches, if successful, might work through the application of screening tools such as high-resolution, widely available PET instruments that can detect individuals who might benefit from treatment prior to the emergence of symptoms. Biography William Jagust, MD is currently Professor of Public Health and Neuroscience at the University of California, Berkeley and a Faculty Senior Scientist at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. Following training in medicine and neurology, Dr. Jagust was a postdoctoral William Jagust fellow at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and then joined the faculty at the University of California Davis, where he was director of the 66 MIC Plenary Talks Alzheimer’s Disease Center and served as Chair from 1998-2004. His research uses multi-modality imaging techniques to study brain aging and dementia, demonstrating hippocampal atrophy using MRI and glucose hypometabolism using PET. Most recently he has employed imaging with ligands that bind to beta-amyloid to probe biochemical changes in brain aging and link them to changes in brain structure and function. Dr. Jagust has served on many NIH review committees including chairing the National Institute on Aging’s Neuroscience of Aging Review Committee, and he is a member of the Editorial Board of the Annals of Neurology, Brain Imaging and Behavior, and Alzheimer’s Disease and Associated Disorders and is an Associate Editor of the journal Frontiers in Human Neuroscience. He is a member of the Alzheimer’s Association Neuroimaging Work Group and the leader of the PET imaging Core of the NIH Alzheimer’s Disease Neuroimaging Initiative, a multi-center project that has pioneered in standardization of PET data acquisition and analysis. M01-2: Practising “Astromedicine” Lessons in Imaging and Inversion from a Rocket Scientist Jaymie Matthews University of British Columbia, Vancouver, & Canadian Space Agency, Canada Wednesday, Oct. 31, 09:15-10:00, Grand Ballroom Center Abstract “Interdisciplinary studies” has become a catchphrase in modern pure and applied sciences. But few would expect this principle could be stretched enough to connect topics as diverse as cancer and cosmology, retinal disorders and resolving binary stars, or the lymphatic system and the Solar System. Those connections – and others between medical imaging and its astrophysical counterparts – do exist. Medical specialists employ non-invasive ways to probe inside the body; astronomers have no choice but to probe distant stars and galaxies non-invasively. Our sciences, despite their very different Jaymie Matthews objectives, share a common element of remote sensing. The retina of light-sensitive cells only 25 millimetres behind the living cornea can pose diagnostic challenges as great as a galaxy of light-emitting galaxies 25 million light years beyond the Earth. I’ll present a few examples of how astronomical imaging and inversion techniques, and detector technology, have been applied by medical researchers: Faint galaxy imaging software and its applications to digital mammograms. Adaptive optics technology intended to counter the turbulence of the Earth’ atmosphere, enabling detailed studies of the living retina through the vitreous humour. Lightweight X-ray sensitive microchips for an orbiting astronomical observatory, which are capable of pin-point diagnostics to guide surgeons to cancerous cells. I’ll also speculate on potential applications in the near future of the fledgling field of “astromedicine”. MIC Plenary Talks 67 Biography Dr. Matthews is the Mission Scientist leading the Canadian Space Agency’s MOST project, and a Professor of Astrophysics in the Department of Physics & Astronomy at the University of British Columbia. He and his team are trying to revise the biography of our Sun – past and future – by studying its neighbours in our Galactic city, the Milky Way.

Karp Dept .of Radiology and Dept. of Physics & Astronomy University of Pennsylvania, USA Wednesday, October 31, 07:00–08:00, Grand Ballroom Center An update will be given on the latest developments of light detectors with a focus on those that have application for medical imaging systems, both current and near future. This will include a discussion of traditional photo-multplier tubes and newer solid-state photosensors, including avalanche photodiodes (APDs) and silicon photomultipliers (SiPMs). A review of the intrinsic performance of the devices will be given and description of how these devices can be incorporated into detectors for medical imaging systems. The design of the detector depends on whether the imaging application is for humans or small animals, which in turn dictates the requirements of performance in terms of sensitivity and spatial, energy, and timing resolution. Our overall goal is to understand how these light sensors impact the imaging performance and versatility of the scanner, and the trade-offs involved in terms of cost and complexity of both detector and electronic design. Ultrasound Imaging and its Application in Minimally Invasive Interventional Guidance Cristian Linte Dept. Physiology& Biomedical Engineering Biomedical Imaging Mayo Clinic, Rochester, USA Thursday, November 1, 07:00–08:00, Grand Ballroom Center Ultrasound (US) imaging involves the exposure of a region of interest in the body to sounds waves in the frequency range of 5-10 MHz. These waves penetrate into soft tissue, but are reflected at tissue boundaries due to the difference of the speed of sound in different tissue media, giving rise to images of the internal body anatomy. In addition to its value as a diagnostic tool, as an alternative to CT or MRI, US imaging is an attractive modality for intra-procedure guidance, especially due to its safety, relatively low cost, wide availability, lack of ionizing radiation and compatibility with standard operating room equipment. As such, US imaging presents a significant benefit for its use in real-time visualization during minimally invasive image-guided interventions. Following a brief overview of the traditional principles of US imaging, this lecture will focus on several applications associated with the use of real-time 2D, 3D as well as 4D (3D + time) US for intra-operative image guidance. Techniques for registration of US images to pre-operative CT or MR images or anatomical models will be discussed, along with the integration of various US transducers with surgical tracking technologies for spatial localization of the acquired images. Clinical applications will include cardiac, orthopedic and prostate interventions, recent developments in US elastography, as well as vascular imaging for monitoring and assessment of vascular disease. To conclude, common challenges and MIC Refresher Courses 69 limitations of US imaging systems, along with future directions in the field, will be outlined. ROC Analysis in Medical Imaging Matthew Kupinski The University of Arizona, College of Optical Sciences, USA Friday November 2, 07:00–08:00, Grand Ballroom Center This course will cover receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis and the application of ROC analysis in medical imaging. This course will not assume any prior knowledge on the subject and will start by discussing how observers, both humans and model observers, can map image data to decision variables; this mapping forms the basis of ROC analysis. The benefits and limitations of ROC-based figures of merit will be discussed as well as tests of significance and multi-reader, multi-case (MRMC) analysis. We will also touch upon the topics of ROC curve fitting, existing software, and ROC variants such as localization ROC (LROC) analysis. The Development and Validation of Useful Radiopharmaceuticals Richard Carson Yale, New Haven, CT, USA Saturday, November 3, 07:00–08:00 , Grand Ballroom Center Abstract: The success of PET and SPECT imaging depends heavily on the availability of specific radiopharmaceuticals with appropriate pharmacokinetic properties. The development of a truly useful tracer requires years of clinical and preclinical work. Successful and useful radiopharmaceuticals have a number of important properties. These include appropriate target selection, suitable affinity and selectivity for the targeted biological process, appropriate lipophilicity for tissue penetration, feasible radiochemistry to produce sufficient yields with necessary specific activity, suitable peripheral metabolism rates, acceptable toxicology and dosimetry, sufficient contrast and uptake for imaging, feasible kinetic modeling for determination of gold-standard pharmacokinetic parameters, and tracer kinetics that support the use of a simple protocol for practical patient imaging. This refresher course will survey these factors in general and in the context of successful radiopharmaceuticals. 70 MIC Refresher Courses RTSD 19th International Workshop on RoomTemperature Semiconductor X- and Gamma Ray Detectors D ear attendees, Welcome to the 19th International Workshop on RoomTemperature Semiconductor X-Ray and Gamma-Ray Detectors RTSD in 2012! As Chairs of the workshop, it is our sincere hope that this conference will facilitate cross-fertilization of research and spawn creative ideas, and that these ideas will be incorporated into knowledge, leading to new directions. We urge you to take time at this meeting to build on the commonality of your work with colleagues within the RTSD, NSS and MIC conferences, and to share your data, energy, and experience, and explore ways to enhance cooperation and collaboration with others. The NSS/MIC/RTSD meeting represents the principal forum for scientists and engineers working to develop new solid-state radiation detectors and imaging arrays. We have chosen to hold this meeting in conjunction with the IEEE NSS and MIC meetings for the purpose of encouraging information exchange between a much larger body of scientists and engineers who have an in-depth knowledge of detectors, instrumentation, nuclear science and technology, and medical imaging. Joint sessions between NSS, MIC and RTSD play a major role for the meeting in 2012. These joint sessions are clearly identified in the program booklet, and we request everyone’s participation to help bring people together with common interests and offer the right environment for the creation of new and fruitful associations. The well-known RTSD luncheon will be held this year at the Rainforest Café located in Downtown Disney about 100-200 yards from the conference site. You are encouraged to purchase your ticket(s) when you preregister as seating will be limited. We would like to thank the speakers and attendees for their contributions, the workshop sponsors for their kind support, and express our gratitude to the session chairs and members of the RTSD Steering Committee, who have offered their time to enlist the involvement of most researchers in the field. Ralph James RTSD Program Co-Chair Ralph James Michael Fiederle Michael Fiederle RTSD Program Co-Chair RTSD 71 Joint Sessions J oint sessions between the NSS, MIC, and RTSD communities are now organized regularly every year on the second day of the conference week.

only possible due to the tremendous effort of the organizing committee and all the other volunteers associated with the conference. Their efforts to organize all of the scientific and social functions as well as manage the daunting financial and logistical issues while still working at their “day job” are the cornerstone of what makes this conference such a success from year to year. This year, we set a record for the number of abstract submissions for a site in the United States and are expecting the largest number of attendees to a US site in the history of the event. I offer my very sincere thanks - for a job well done. This conference, and the ability of the volunteers to work on it, is made possible through the sponsorship of the IEEE Nuclear and Plasma Sciences Society (NPSS) and through the generous support of the cooperating institutions and organizations listed on the inside front cover. I am indeed fortunate to have such a hard working and skilled committee - the key to the success of such a complex conference. All of the committee members have shown their dedication to the conference, their willingness to compromise where needed, and their ability to work together - even over long distances. Of course, there would not be a conference without the outstanding contributions from all of the authors and attendees. I wish to thank you for continuing to assure that the IEEE NSS/MIC and the RTSD maintains its reputation for the outstanding intellectual and scientific content of the conference.

The 2013 Conference will be held, for the first time in the AsianPacific region, in the beautiful and historical city of Seoul, Korea, from October 27th - November 2nd, 2013 at the spacious and modern COEX Convention Center. The conference center is located in the south part of the city, with easy access to the airport and within walking distance of a broad range of hotels. It is conveniently linked to the city center, the historical museums, and the ancient palaces either by walking or by public transport. Our theme for 2013 is “Beyond Imagination of Future Science.” The Organizing Committee is planning a high scientific level meeting that will include both oral and poster presentations and refresher courses on important topics. A commercial exhibition that will showcase state-of-the-art products and services from a wide range of companies will be held in parallel to the scientific programs. The exhibit space will be specifically designed to allow both the exhibitors and attendees ample space for discussions and exploration of common interests. This meeting has always been a great opportunity to meet with old friends, make new ones, exchange ideas, and share knowledge and experience in the nuclear science, medical imaging, and roomtemperature semiconductor detector fields. This meeting anticipates a greatly expanded Asian-Pacific attendance that will make the 2013 IEEE NSS/MIC conference exceptionally special, meaningful, and memorable. The City of Seoul not only provides an excellent venue for our professional meeting, but is also an ideal location for attendees to bring their families. A variety of interesting tours will be offered so attendees and their companions can fully experience Seoul and the surrounding region. City Tour buses are the most convenient and comfortable way to explore the city, as most major sights and attractions are presented on a single tour. Nestled around the Han River is the Korean capital Seoul, a city of old and new. With thousands of years of history, it has well preserved royal palaces, historical relics, and cultural treasures, yet state-of-the-art facilities and infrastructure as well. Seoul has been the capital of Korea for about 600 years and has developed into a bustling metropolis, acting as the hub for political, economic, social, and cultural matters. On behalf of the organizing committee, I encourage you to make plans now to attend the 60th exciting NSS/MIC conference of the IEEE Nuclear and Plasma Sciences Society. I look forward to welcoming you to Seoul in October 2013. Hee-Joung Kim 2013 NSS/MIC/RTSD General Chair USA Return Address: Thomas K.
