Welcome to Hawaii and to Vertex2002

~3000km A little geography/geology we are here

V= 5~10 cm/year

Loihi Possible site for VERTEX ? Kilauea

Kilauea lava flows hvo.wr.usgs.gov.kilauea/update/main.html

Mauna Kea premier site for astronomical observation

Silicon detectors (CCDs) have revolutionized Astronomy

and particle physics Yoshikazu Yamada & the Belle vertex detector

we are pleased that many of the perpetrators of this revolution are here

We are also pleased that there are so many young people in attendance; they will take the technology to its next level.
