Welcome
|The International Technical Safety Forum (ITSF) is a group of engineers, physicists, and safety professionals united in exchanging state-of-the-art ideas, processes, procedures, and technologies in personnel, environmental, and equipment safety from a variety of high-energy physics and synchrotron-radiation laboratories. Founded in 1998, the Forum meets roughly every 18 months.
Previous fora have been held at the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN)|, the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (Fermilab)|, the German Electron-Synchrotron (DESY)|, the Italian Institute for Nuclear Physics (INFN)| Gran Sasso Laboratory and Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (SLAC)|.
The ITSF 2006, held from 18 - 22 September 2006 at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory, Oxfordshire, UK, was expanded to include neutron physics and high energy lasers.
