SEARCH FOR MAGNETIC MONOPOLES IN THE LUNAR SAMPLES OF APOLLO11. (open access)

SEARCH FOR MAGNETIC MONOPOLES IN THE LUNAR SAMPLES OF APOLLO11.

An electromagnetic search for magnetic monopoles of the minimum size predicted by Dirac, or of any larger magnitude, has been performed on 8.37 kilograms of lunar surface material returned by the Apollo 11 crew. No monopole was found. This experiment sets new limits on the production cross section for monopoles, and on their occurrence in cosmic radiation.

PHYSICS WITH AND PHYSICS OF COLLIDING ELECTRON BEAMS (open access)

PHYSICS WITH AND PHYSICS OF COLLIDING ELECTRON BEAMS

When particle physics is a closed subject which has been condensed into a text book, the material will surely be organized by concepts and not according to what fact was learned on what accelerator. But short of that day facilities must be designed, planned, and developed, and experiments must be executed on one of a number of available accelerators; and a very necessary point of view is to ask what physics can be done with one facility, in contrast to another. It is in this spirit that, in this note, we look at electron colliding beam devices. In the first section we discuss the physics that can be done with colliding electron beams. After some general remarks we review the experiments already performed, and then turn to experiments planned for the future. The physics that can be done with any accelerator is a strong function of the physics of the accelerator. Every reader of this Journal knows what determines the energy of an accelerator, but the physics that determines the beam intensity, quality, and pulse length is perhaps not so well known. In fact, we plan to devote a future Comment to the physics that limits the performance of conventional …

SYNTHESIS OF MONO-, DI-, AND POLYNITROXIDES. CLASSIFICATION OF ESRSPECTRA OF FLEXIBLE DINITROXIDES DISSOLVED IN LIQUIDS AND GLASSES (open access)

SYNTHESIS OF MONO-, DI-, AND POLYNITROXIDES. CLASSIFICATION OF ESRSPECTRA OF FLEXIBLE DINITROXIDES DISSOLVED IN LIQUIDS AND GLASSES

The synthesis of flexible biradical strain-gauges which could be anchored onto two sites of a deformable biological structure had been attempted. Qualitative relationships between the possible conformations of the biradicals and the observed ESR spectra provide guidelines for further synthetic work. Some of the nitroxides synthesized and characterized are: R-CO-R{sub 1}-N-(CH{sub 2}){sub n}-R{sub 2}-N-CO-R, where R is 1-oxyl-2,2,6,6-tetramethyl pyrroline bonded at the 3-position, n = 2,3 and R{sub 1,2} = -H; -C{sub 18}{sub 37}; -CH{sub 2}COOH; -CH{sub 2}COOC{sub 2}H{sub 5}; -CH{sub 2}CONH(CH{sub 2}){sub 2}N(CH{sub 3}){sub 2}; -CH{sub 2}CONH(CH{sub 2}){sub 2}N{sup +}(CH{sub 3}) -CH{sub 2}CO-imidazolide.

An Experimental Test of Time-Reversal Invariance inthePhotodisintegration of the Deuteron (open access)

An Experimental Test of Time-Reversal Invariance inthePhotodisintegration of the Deuteron

We present data from a measurement of angular distributions of the reaction n + p {yields} {gamma} + d (1a) for neutrons with energies between 300 and 700 MeV. These data are compared with recent data for the inverse reaction {gamma} + d {yields} n + p (1b). Time-reversal invariance implies that apart from a normalization factor the angular distributions should be the same. We find an intriguing discrepancy in the vicinity of the well-known peak in the total cross section of reaction (1b) and apparent agreement elsewhere. The discrepancy occurs in the shape of the angular distributions and does not depend on the normalization of our data or those of the inverse reaction experiments.

Momentum Spectra of Charged Pions Produced in Proton-ProtonInteractions between 13 and 28.5 GeV/c (open access)

Momentum Spectra of Charged Pions Produced in Proton-ProtonInteractions between 13 and 28.5 GeV/c

Proton-proton interactions with four or more charged particles in the final state are studied over a range of incident momenta between 13 and 28.5 GeV/c. Topology cross sections are presented. The center-of-mass momentum distributions of {pi}{sup +} and {pi}{sup -} are determined and are successfully parameterized. The {pi}{sup +} and {pi}{sup -} momentum spectra are found to have approximately the same shape. Multiple fireball production is not required by our data.

Fields and First Order Perturbation Effects in Two-DimensionalConductor Dominated Magnets (open access)

Fields and First Order Perturbation Effects in Two-DimensionalConductor Dominated Magnets

General expressions are given for the field and its expansion coefficients produced by a two dimensional conductor structure surrounded by iron with a circular inside boundary. Saturation effects are described in terms of the tangential field at that boundary. The effects of the following types of perturbations are discussed: displacement, rotation and error excitation of a conductor, change of conductor shape, and modification of the inside contour of the iron. A design criterion is given to minimize the error fields associated with a displacement of the iron shell relative to the conductor structure. Expressions for the force and torque acting on a conductor are derived both for the unperturbed and perturbed magnet. Formulae are presented that allow convenient and fast evaluation of pertinent quantities with a computer when the structure is too complicated for hand computations.
