The Economics of Agricultural Policy

An English Act of 1663 imposed a duty on grain imported from abroad whenever the domestic price was below a legislatively set price floor. The English farmer enjoyed a virtual monopoly in the domestic market. By the same token, he was allowed to export grain whenever the domestic price exceeded the price floor, and, after 1673, was granted a bounty (subsidy) on grain exports.

Japan-Taiwan Economic Relations: Implications for the U.S.

Taiwan and Japan might seem to be two similar island economies when viewed from this side of the Pacific, but they are strikingly dissimilar. Over the twentieth century, their relationship with one another has shifted from colonial to mutual growth and recognition to the current anomaly of an intense economic interchange accompanied by severed diplomatic ties. Between Taiwan and Japan, the private sector is taking the lead in developing a relationship that is both mutually beneficial and strained.

Specification of the power supply for a 6-pole combined horizontal and vertical corrector magnet (open access)

Specification of the power supply for a 6-pole combined horizontal and vertical corrector magnet

Light Source Note LS-176 lists four types of corrector magnets and their power supply specifications. In order to simplify the AC operation of corrector magnets for closed orbit correction feedback, adopting a single type of corrector magnet for the whole ring is currently considered. This corrector magnet has six poles (an adaption from the ring sextupole magnet) and has coil windings producing independent horizontal and vertical bending fields. As in the other correctors, the vacuum chamber eddy current dominates the AC operation of the magnet which affects the voltage specification of the power supplies. In this note, the physical requirements of the magnets will be reviewed, and the relevant magnet and power supply parameters will be reported. A few assumptions on the local bump geometries have changed since the publication of LS-176. The inner correctors of the straight section bump have been moved about 0.15 m inwards to conform with current vacuum chamber design. This decreases the required magnet strengths by 15% relative to those in LS-176. As of the publication date of this report, the locations of the two outboard correctors of the straight section bump are set midway between the quadrupoles Ql and Q2. Moving these correctors closer …

A Review of the 1991 E760 Run (open access)

A Review of the 1991 E760 Run

The 1991 E760 run was highly successful. This note is an attempt to record some important information regarding Accumulator operation during the run, so that it will be easily accessible for the next E760 run. The topics are not in any particularly relevant order, but are taken mostly from a seminar given by M. Church on 2/13/92. Much ramp data resides in the 'E760 Ramps Notebook' and much other data resides in E760 logbooks V, VI, VII, and VIII. Table 1 summarizes the data collected during the run. Fig. 1 shows the luminosity collected week by week and the average stacking rate per stack. Fig. 2 shows the luminosity integrated through the run. A total of 31 pb{sup -1} was collected. Fig 3. shows a typical deceleration (above transition) with a typical efficiency of 95%. Early in the run the efficiency was very close to 100%. I suspect there was an aperture restriction - possibly a momentum aperture limitation as we wandered too close to the edge of the momentum aperture. The deceleration efficiency really should be 100%. Fig. 4 shows a typical data-taking cycle. The break point 2/3rds through the data-taking is a deceleration to the {eta}{sub c}. Fig. …
