A Deformable Bag Model of Hadrons. I
As a generalization of the MIT spherical bag model, we construct the spheroidal bag model of hadron with an arbitrary eccentricity. This generalization is made by slightly modifying the MIT linear boundary condition: The linear boundary condition is examined in detail. Our model always satisfies two necessary requirements of the MIT bag model --i. e., n-j=O, no quark colour flux leaves the bag, and ijq =0, the scalar density of quark should vanish on the bag surface-- and it reduces to the MIT spherical bag model in the limit of zero-eccentricity. Lagrangian formalism of our model is briefly described. The eigenfrequencies of a single massless quark confined in this spheroidal bag are numer­ ically calculated. We obtain the level-splitting of the excited quark orbits, which is just analogous to the well-known Nilsson's splitting of single particle orbits in deformed nuclei. By using the numerical results of the lowest orbit, the effect of the bag-deformation on the mass of low-lying hadrons is estimated. It is found that, although the spherical bag is stable, tbe quark bag is extremely soft against the quadrupole deformation. Brief discussions are added on the mechanisms which make the spherical bag more stable.

Toward construction of the unified lepton-nucleus interaction model from a few hundred MeV to GeV region
Next generation neutrino oscillation experiments will need a quantitative understanding of neutrino-nucleus interaction far better than ever. Kinematics covered by the relevant neutrino-nucleus interaction spans wide region, from the quasi-elastic, through the resonance region, to the deeply inelastic scattering region. The neutrino-nucleus interaction in each region has quite different characteristics. Obviously, it is essential to combine different expertise to construct a unified model that covers all the kinematical region of the neutrino-nucleus interaction. Recently, several experimentalists and theorists got together to form a collaboration to tackle this problem. In this contribution, we report the collaboration’s recent activity and a goal in near future.

Casimir effect on quark-gluon plasma
We study the Casimir effect on baryon-free quark-gluon plasma confined in a slab region. The energy and entropy densities of confined QGP at the transition temperature are 2∼3 times as large as those of unconfined QGP when the width of the slab is about 1 fm.

The Nolen-Schiffer anomaly and isospin symmetry breaking in nuclear matter
Abstract The quark-meson coupling model which we have developed previously is extended to incorporate the δ meson. It is then used to study the Nolen-Schiffer anomaly and isospin symmetry breaking in nuclear matter. We find that, in combination with the u - d mass difference, the difference between quark scalar densities in protons and neutrons generates an effective neutron-proton mass difference of the right magnitude. Finally we find that isospin symmetry breaking in the quark condensates can be directly related to the δ meson field.

Achievement of 35 MV/m in the superconducting nine-cell cavities for TESLA
The Tera Electronvolt Superconducting Linear Accelerator TESLA is the only linear electron-positron collider project based on superconductor technology for particle acceleration. In the first stage with 500 GeV center-ofmass energy an accelerating field of 23.4 MV/m is needed in the superconducting niobium cavities which are operated at a temperature of 2 K and a quality factor Q0 of 10 10 . This performance has been reliably achieved in the cavities of the TESLA Test Facility (TTF) accelerator. The upgrade of TESLA to 800 GeV requires accelerating gradients of 35 MV/m. Using an improved cavity treatment by electrolytic polishing it has been possible to raise the gradient to 35 - 43 MV/m in single cell resonators. Here we report on the successful transfer of the electropolishing technique to multi-cell cavities. Presently four nine-cell cavities have achieved 35 MV/m at Q0 ≥ 5×10 9 , and a fifth cavity could be excited to 39 MV/m. In two high-power tests it could be verified that EP-cavities preserve their excellent performance after welding into the helium cryostat and assembly of the high-power coupler. One cavity has been operated for 1100 hours at the TESLA-800 gradient of

Analytic Formulae for the Off-Center CMB Anisotropy in a General Spherically Symmetric Universe
The local void model has recently attracted considerable attention because it can explain the apparent accelerated expansion of the present universe without introducing dark energy. However, in order to justify this model as an alternative to the standard ΛCDM cosmology, the model should be tested by various observations, such as the CMB temperature anisotropy, besides the distance-redshift relation of SNIa. For this purpose, we derive analytic formulae for the dipole and quadrupole moments of the CMB temperature anisotropy that hold for any spherically symmetric universe model and can be used to compare consequences of such a model with observations of the CMB temperature anisotropy rigorously. We check that our formulae are consistent with the numerical studies previously made for the CMB temperature anisotropy in the void model. We also update the constraints concerning the location of the observers in the void model by applying our analytic dipole formula with the latest WMAP data. Subject Index: 400, 401, 402, 403, 468

APPLICATION OF MO SEALING FOR SRF CAVITIES
H. Matsumoto in KEK and his collaborator M. Ohotsuka have developed MO sealing for normal conducting high peak power RF wave-guide. This is impedance free sealing. We have applied this sealing to SRF cavity instead of indium sealing. We used pure aluminium gasket as the sealing material. We had a difficulty on the titanium flange but finally succeeded to demonstrate its leak tightness in super-fluid Helium. In this paper, we will report the R&D results.
