Fundamental tests and measures of the structure of matter at short distances

Description: Recent progress in gauge field theories has led to a new perspective on the structure of matter and basic interactions at short distances. It is clear that at very high energies quantum electrodynamics, together with the weak and strong interactions, are part of a unified theory with new fundamental constants, new symmetries, and new conservation laws. A non-technical introduction to these topics is given, with emphasis on fundamental tests and measurements. 21 references.

Prospects for strong interaction physics at ISABELLE. [Seven papers]

Description: Seven papers are presented resulting from a conference intended to stimulate thinking about how ISABELLE could be used for studying strong interactions. A separate abstract was prepared for each paper for inclusion in DOE Energy Research Abstracts (ERA). (PMA)

TeV picture

Description: A not-so-standard model of strong and electroweak interactions is discussed. Some direct consequences of this model are discussed and finally the outlook for the future is considered.

Gauge theories of the weak interactions. [Lectures]

Description: Two lectures are presented on the Weinberg--Salam--Glashow--Iliopoulos--Maiani gauge theory for weak interactions. An attempt is made to give some impressions of the generality of this model, how it was developed, variations found in the literature, and the status of the standard model. 21 references (JFP).

Confinement and lattice gauge theory

Description: The motivation for formulating gauge theories on a lattice to study non-perturbative phenomena is reviewed, and recent progress supporting the compatibility of asymptotic freedom and quark confinement in the standard SU(3) Yang-Mills theory of the strong interaction is discussed.

Experimental determimation of Compton scattering from pyrolytic graphite and glass-like carbons

Description: In pyrolytic graphite, PG, the X-ray scattering from a Bragg reflection is all Compton modified radiation. A comparison of direct measurements shows that the Compton fraction in the scattering from disordered carbons, e.g., glassy carbon, can be calculated from measurements on PG and the adsorption coefficient of the disordered carbon.

Effective Lagrangian for supersymmetric QCD

Description: I present a Lagrangian which describes the spontaneous breaking of chiral symmetries in strongly interacting supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory with matter fields. This Lagrangian predicts that supersymmetry is spontaneously broken if the matter fields have precisely zero mass.

Physics with polarized photons

Description: The role that polarization can play in the interaction of real and virtual photons with nuclear matter is considered. Linear, circular, and elliptical polarization are considered. Photodisintegration of the deuteron with linearly polarized photons is then examined, followed by use of circularly polarized photons with a polarized target. 30 refs., 4 figs. (LEW)

Gravity theories in more than four dimensions

Description: String theories suggest particular forms for gravity interactions in higher dimensions. We consider an interesting class of gravity theories in more than four dimensions, clarify their geometric meaning and discuss their special properties. 9 refs.

The present status of the LLNL Evaluated Charged Particle Library (ECPL)

Description: The present report is written with two purposes in mind: to summarize the charged-particle reactions that presently exist in Evaluated Charge Particle Library; and to list all of the low-Z charged-particle reactions for which data exist in the Livermore experimental data compilation. 2 tabs.
