Description

Wesley!

Please join us in honoring Professor Wesley Smith for a distinguished
career in experimental particle physics that spans investigations into
neutrino phenomena at Fermilab, deep inelastic scattering and
structure functions at HERA, and proton-proton interactions at the
LHC.   Wesley has been a leader in the field of triggering, designing
and commissioning electronics for calorimeter triggers for over three
decades.   His colleagues, former students and friends will gather in
Madison for a symposium that will review Wesley’s contributions to the
field.
