RD51合作成立于2008年4月，旨在协调和促进微模式气体探测器（mpgds）的发展。来自25个国家的75个研究所汇集了他们的努力、经验和资源来开发这些新兴的微模式技术。Mpgds已用于若干核物理和高能物理实验、医学成像仪器和光探测应用；预计还会有更多的应用。它们在速率能力、时间和位置分辨率、粒度、稳定性和辐射硬度方面优于传统的线室。RD51支持使mpgds也适用于大面积，提高成本效益，开发便携式探测器和提高易用性的努力。该合作组织在工作组中，开发具有新几何形状的探测器，研究和模拟其性质，并设计优化的电子设备。共同支持的项目包括建立测试基础设施，如光束测试和辐照设施，以及生产车间。
The RD51 collaboration was founded in April 2008 to coordinate and facilitate efforts for development of micropattern gaseous detectors (mpgds). The 75 institutes from 25 countries bundle their effort, experience and resources to develop these emerging micropattern technologies. Mpgds are already employed in several nuclear and high-energy physics experiments, medical imaging instruments and photodetection applications; many more applications are foreseen. They outperform traditional wire chambers in terms of rate capability, time and position resolution, granularity, stability and radiation hardness. RD51 supports efforts to make mpgds also suitable for large areas, increase cost-efficiency, develop portable detectors and improve ease-of-use. The collaboration is organized in working groups which develop detectors with new geometries, study and simulate their properties, and design optimized electronics. Among the common supported projects are creation of test infrastructure such as beam test and irradiation facilities, and the production workshop.
