Summary of Section New Accelerators, Detectors, Calculus and New Technologies

Deployment and development of advanced technologies for accelerators, detectors, electronics and computing is inherent in everyday activity of all research projects and experiments funded by INFN. However, when a part of the research work can be clearly identified as an R D activity aimed at the development of a new technology or procedure for specific, or a more general, application it is worthwhile to cut it off and manage it as an independent self-consistent experiment. For many of them it is also easy to find applications in other research discipline or industry. In this case it is important to verify the potentiality of the technology, customize it and improve it, in collaboration with the end user, for the specific application.
