The Workshop "Optical Detectors for Astronomy" was held during
October 8-10, 1996 at the headquarters of the European Southern
Observatory in Garching, Germany. This was the third meeting of its
kind, previous meetings being held in 1991 and 1993, but this is
the first ESO "CCD Workshop" that has published proceedings. Most
of the leading manufacturers and major astronomical observatories
were represented, with the 117 attendees coming together from 14
different countries that spanned every continent on Earth. The
motivation for the ESO CCD Workshop series is the creation of
informal and open venue of information exchange about astronomical
CCD detectors and systems. Judging from the reaction and feedback
of the participants, the 1996 workshop was as successful as the
previous editions, which is a credit to all who attended. The
Workshop was organized as a mixture of invited talks, oral
presentations, poster sessions and roundtable discussions, the
latter used to foster a free exchange of ideas among participants.
These technical sessions were complemented by an opening reception
and a congenial evening in downtown Munich, which included a
walking tour of the historic area followed by dinner at the famous
Franziskaner brewery and an after dinner talk by Walter Kosonocky,
who reviewed the history of CCD technology.
