The Engineering Design of the 1.5 m Diameter Solenoid for the MICE RFCC Modules
The RF coupling coil (RFCC) module of MICE is where muons that have been cooled within the MICE absorber focus (AFC) modules are re-accelerated to their original longitudinal momentum. The RFCC module consists of four 201.25 MHz RF cavities in a 1.4 meter diameter vacuum vessel. The muons are kept within the RF cavities by the magnetic field generated by a superconducting coupling solenoid that goes around the RF cavities. The coupling solenoid will be cooled using a pair of 4 K pulse tube cooler that will generate 1.5 W of cooling at 4.2 K. The magnet will be powered using a 300 A two-quadrant power supply. This report describes the ICST engineering design of the coupling solenoid for MICE.

PROGRESS ON THE SUPERCONDUCTING MAGNET FOR THE TIME PROJECTION CHAMBER EXPERIMENT (TPC) AT PEP
The TPC (Time Projection Chamber) experiment at PEP will have a two meter inside diameter superconducting magnet which creatests a 1.5 T uniform solenoidal field for the TPC. The superconducting magnet coil, cryostat, cooling system, and the TPC gas pressure vessel (which operatests at 11 atm) were designed to be about two thirds of a radiation length thick. As a result, a high current density coil design was chosen. The magnet is cooled by forced flow two phase helium. The TPC magnet is the largest adiabatically stable superconducting magnet built to date. The paper presents the parameters of the TPC thin solenoid and its subsystems. Tests results from the Spring 1980 cryogenic tes are presented. The topics to be dealt with in the paper are cryogenic services and the tests of magnet subsystems such as the folded current leads. Large thin superconducting magnet technology will be important to large detectors to be used on LEP.

A Design for a Combined Function Superconducting Dipole for a Muon Collider FFAG Accelerator
The acceleration stages for a muon collider require that the muons be accelerated within a given ring in fewer than twenty turns. One type of accelerator that appears to be attractive for a synchrotron that accelerates the muon a factor of four in energy in a few turns is the Fixed Field Alternating Gradient (FFAG) type of accelerator. As the energy of the muon beam increases, the muons move toward a higher field region of a DC combined function dipole. The following dipole and quadrupole magnet characteristics are required for a muon FFAG machine to be successful: (1) The dipole will be a fixed field dipole with an impressed quadrupole and sextupole field. There may or may not be separate quadrupoles that mayor may not have added sextupole windings. (2) The horizontal aperture of the required good field region is wider than the vertical aperture of the required good field region. (3) The magnet is relatively short, so that the conventional SSC type of superconducting dipole or quadrupole ends can not be used. The field at the end of the magnet must fall off abruptly within the distance of less than one vertical aperture. For a magnet that is 400more » mm long, the end region can be no more than 80 mm long. (4) The structure of the integrated field within the end region must be the same as the structure of the two-dimensional filed at the center of the magnet. A very preliminary design concept for a FFAG combined function dipole is presented in this paper.« less

Calculation of the pressure rise in the cooling tube of a two-phase cooling system during a quench of an indirectly cooled superconducting magnet
Large superconducting detector magnets are indirectly cooled with two-phase helium flowing in cooling tubes attached to the coil or its support structure. Large detector magnets often quench such that most of the magnet stored energy ends up as heat stored in the coil package. The time constant for energy deposition in the coil and support structure is often quite short. This paper presents a method for calculating the peak pressure rise in the magnet two-phase cooling tube during a magnet quench. A comparison of calculated peak pressure rise and measured pressure rise for the PEP-4 solenoid is presented in this report. >

Summing over world-sheet boundaries
Abstract The moduli associated with boundaries in a Riemann surface are parametrized by the positions and strengths of electric charges. This suggests a method for summing over orientable Riemann surfaces with Dirichlet boundary conditions on the embedding coordinates. A light-cone parameterization of such boundaries is also discussed.

Comments on three-branes
Abstract The Born-Infeld-like effective world-volume theory of a single 3-brane is deduced from a manifestly space-time supersymmetric description of the corresponding D -brane. This is shown to be invariant under SL (2, R ) transformations that act on the abelian gauge field as well as the bulk fields. The effective theory of two nearby parallel three-branes involves massive world-volume supermultiplets which transform under SL (2, Z ) into the dyonic solitons of four-dimensional N = 4 spontaneously broken SU (2) Yang-Mills theory.

Strings and Superstrings
The last Nobel Symposium on elementary particle physics ended on May 25 1968. The main topics discussed at that meeting were: high energy scattering of hadrons, infinite component field theory and electroweak unification. The last of these topics is the one which is best remembered since it is associated with the revolution in our understanding of the field theoretic description of the weak and electromagnetic forces. The first two topics, however, are closely associated with the origins of string theory. This talk will survey the development of string theory from that time up to the summer of 1984, since when there has been an explosion of activity in superstring theory which forms the main topic of this meeting.

Space-time duality and Dirichlet string theory
Abstract Bosonic open-string theory (with Neumann boundary conditions) compactified on a torus is related by spatial duality to a theory living on the dual torus and satisfying constant (Dirichlet) boundary conditions. Amplitudes are functions of the “positions” of the Dirichlet boundaries. A Minkowski-space Dirichlet string theory may be defined by summing insertions of zero-momentum Dirichlet boundaries in orientable world-sheets of arbitrary genus. This is a closed-string theory with a radically altered vacuum state, in which fixed-angle scattering is power behaved as a function of energy.

A lattice formulation of the Reggeon Field Theory and its critical behaviour
Abstract We formulate a lattice description of the Reggeon Field Theory in terms of two-dimensional vector spins of unit length (as in the x − y model). We exhibit, within the context of mean field theory, the phase transition of the Reggeon Field Theory that occurs as the (imaginary) magnetic field and temperature are varied in our statistical mechanical model.
