May 23-25, 2006 The Michigan League This Symposium is the eleventh in a series of technical meetings dealing with ionizing radiation and its applications that began in 1964 and has subsequently been held at intervals of every four to five years. The most recent in this series was held in 2002 on the University of Michigan campus, with a program that included over 200 presentations in both oral and poster format. Its focus has expanded over the decades to include the breadth of ionizing radiation measurement applications and technologies. Papers physically presented at the conference by one of the authors and accepted for publication will appear in a special edition of Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research A (NIM A).
