Dear Beam Instrumentation Professional,

The organizers would like to welcome you to the 15th biennial Beam 
Instrumentation Workshop (BIW12), to be held in Newport News, Virginia, 
April 15-19 2012. This workshop is dedicated to exploring the physics 
and engineering challenges of beam diagnostics and measurement 
techniques for charged particle accelerators. BIW12 is being hosted by 
Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility. The meeting program will
