Development of Small GEM-TPC Prototype in PANDA Collaboration at Helsinki Institute

This document outlines the development activities of the small GEM-TPC prototype within the PANDA collaboration framework at the Helsinki Institute of Physics. It includes plans for research and development, characterization of GEM-TPC systems, and assembly techniques for large TPCs. Key future activities involve producing TOTEM GEM detectors, assessing funding applications, and preparing for essential decisions regarding project commitments from the Ministry of Education. The aim is to optimize the GEM-TPC design, assembly, and testing processes to contribute effectively to particle physics research.
