The vanishing of triple reggeon vertices
Abstract We demonstrate that a nonsense wrong signature zero is responsible for the vanishing of the triple Pomeron vertex with all legs at zero mass. The key input is the vanishing of certain fixed pole residues which is enforced by unitarity. Some other consequences of this general feature are drawn.

N=4 Yang-Mills and N=8 Supergravity as Limits of String Theories
The formulation of supersymmetric string theories in ten dimensions is generalized to incorporate compactified dimensions. Expressions for the one-loop four-particle S -matrix elements of N = 4 Yang-Mills and N = 8 supergravity in four dimensions are obtained by studying the string-theory loop amplitudes in the limit that the radii of the compactified dimensions and the Regge slope parameter simultaneously approach zero. If certain patterns that emerge should persist in the higher orders of perturbation theory, then N = 4 Yang-Mills in four dimensions would be ultraviolet finite to all orders, whereas N = 8 supergravity in four dimensions would have ultraviolet divergences starting at three loops.

Anomalous creation of branes
In certain circumstances when two branes pass through each other a third brane is produced stretching between them. We explain this phenomenon by the use of chains of dualities and the inflow of charge that is required for the absence of chiral gauge anomalies when pairs of D-branes intersect.

Off-shell states in the dual model
Abstract We present a class of Lorentz invariant, gauge invariant off-shell amplitudes for the ordinary Veneziano and Ramond-Neveu-Schwarz dual models. They correspond to interactions with the string which are local in space-time.

Anomaly cancellations in supersymmetric D = 10 gauge theory and superstring theory☆
Abstract Supersymmetric ten-dimensional Yang-Mills theory coupled to N = 1, D = 10 supergravity has gauge and gravitational anomalies that can be partially cancelled by the addition of suitable local interactions. The remaining pieces of all the anomalies cancel if the gauge group is SO(32) or E 8 × E 8 . These cancellations are automatically incorporated in the type I superstring theory based on SO(32). A superstring theory for E 8 × E 8 has not yet been constructed.

Structural Design and Thermal Analysis for Thermal Shields of the MICE Coupling Magnets
A superconducting coupling magnet made from copper matrix NbTi conductors operating at 4 K will be used in the Muon Ionization Cooling Experiment (MICE) to produce up to 2.6 T on the magnet centerline to keep the muon beam within the thin RF cavity windows. The coupling magnet is to be cooled by two cryocoolers with a total cooling capacity of 3 W at 4.2 K. In order to keep a certain operating temperature margin, the most important is to reduce the heat leakage imposed on cold surfaces of coil cold mass assembly. An intermediate temperature shield system placed between the coupling coil and warm vacuum chamber is adopted. The shield system consists of upper neck shield, main shields, flexible connections and eight supports, which is to be cooled by the first stage cold heads of two cryocoolers with cooling capacity of 55 W at 60 K each. The maximum temperature difference on the shields should be less than 20 K, so the thermal analyses for the shields with different thicknesses, materials, flexible connect...

Large diameter thin superconducting solenoid magnets
Abstract High energy physics experiments on the latest generation colliding beam machines require large superconducting solenoid magnets. The Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory is developing a new generation of high current density (∼ 10 9 A m −2 ) superconducting solenoid magnets which are thin from a radion standpoint. To meet our design objectives, an integrated magnet and cryostat design has been evolved. Recent tests of one metre diameter prototype magnets show that our design concepts are technically viable. The results of the one metre magnet test are reported here.

Estimating the Cost of Large Superconducting Thin Solenoid Magnets
The cost of thin superconducting solenoid magnets can be estimated if one knows the magnet stored energy, the magnetic field volume product or the overall mass of the superconducting coil and its cryostat. This report shows cost data collected since 1979 for large superconducting solenoid magnets used in high energy physics. These magnets are characterized in most cases by the use of indirect two phase helium cooling and a superconductor stabilizer of very pure aluminum. This correlation can be used for making a preliminary cost estimate of proposed one of a kind superconducting magnets. The magnet costs quoted include the power supply and quench protection system but the cost of the helium refrigerator and helium distribution system is not included in the estimated cost.

Superconducting dipole moment correction coils for a free-flying version of ASTROMAG
Abstract ASTROMAG is a particle astrophysics experiment which will operate in space for a period of two years or more. Momentum and charge resolution of cosmic rays is achieved using particle detectors in a magnetic field. In the ASTROMAG experiment, this magnetic field is provided by a pair of superconducting solenoids. The ASTROMAG superconducting magnet is supposed to have a zero net magnetic dipole moment so that magnetic torques introduced to the space craft are kept at a low level. Dipole moment correction coils, which can provide up to 11,000 Am 2 of correction in the Z direction and 7,000 Am 2 of correction in the X and Y directions, appear to be practical using superconducting correction coils which are mounted on the superfluid helium tank in a region 0.5 meters wide halfway between the main ASTROMAG coils. The superconducting dipole moment correction coils should be capable of reducing the ASTROMAG magnet net dipole moment to 100 Am −2 or lower.

A compact-high performance NLC damping ring using high magnetic field bending magnets
We describe a 1.5 GeV damping ring for very low emittance e/sup /spl plusmn// beams that can be used for the NLC. A key feature of this system is the use of 7 T bending magnets to greatly reduce the size and cost of the storage ring as well as the tune and the damping ring while increasing the acceptance. We present only a preliminary study here.
