| Summary: | Annotation The aim of the STORI99 Conference was to bring together physicists from a diverse international research community connected by the common technology of storage rings & review the topics of current interest in nuclear physics research with stored, cooled ion beams & electron beams. Specifically, the scientific program of STORI99 focused on recent results from a wide variety of experimental programs at existing stored-beam facilities, on progress in associated theoretical issues, & on discussion of new facilities & experimental techniques. In addition to the traditional physics topics covered by the series of STORI conferences (nucleon physics & meson production, physics with stored heavy-ion beams, polarized beams & targets), new physics topics introduced at STORI99 included strangeness production with high-energy stored proton beams & physics with stored electron beams.
Annotation Physicists from a diverse international research community connected by the common technology of storage rings review topics of current interest in nuclear physics research with stored, cooled, ion beams and electron beams. More specifically, they discuss recent results from a wide variety of experimental programs at existing stored-beam facilities, progress in associated theoretical issues, and new facilities and experimental techniques. Topics new to the 1999 conference are strangeness production with high-energy stored proton beams and physics with stored electron beams. Other themes include the NN interactions of scattering and pion production, producing mesons from nuclei, producing heavy mesons, theoretical issue in meson production, physics with stored electrons, and stored and cooled beams. The 47 papers are reproduced from printouts or typescripts. They are not indexed. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com).
