Talks to be submitted by the American LCD group to the Sitges parallel sessions __________________________________________________ (This list supposed to summarize the work going on under the aegis of our collaboration. Talks marked with ? are not confirmed. I am happy to add projects to this list, and I also encourage people with projects not listed here to submit them directly to the Sitges organizers. I have tried to sort the projects according the organization of parallel sessions at Sitges, as best I understand it. --MEP ) Simulation Tools ---------------- Simulation packages with variable detector geometry: GISMO and fastMC packages -- R.
