Topical Workshop on Low Radioactivity Techniques: LRT 2006 (AIP Conference Proceedings / Astronomy and Astrophysics)

The main purpose of the 2nd Topical Workshop on Low Radioactivity Techniques was to share the knowledge on techniques and developments aimed at ultra-low level backgrounds. Extremely low backgrounds are needed for searches looking for rare events such as dark matter or solar neutrinos. The articles gathered in this proceeding are unique since they provide technical details on low radioactivity techniques developments.
