The Stanford Linear Collider was designed to operate with round beams [ 11; horizontal and vertical emittance made equal hi the damping rings. The main motivation was to facilitate the optical matching through beam lines with strong coupling elements like the solenoid spin rotator magnets and the SLC ales. Tests in 1992 showed that ‘flat’ beams with a vertical to horizontal emittance ratio of a...

Secondary lymphoid organ chemokine (SLC) is expressed in high endothelial venules and in T cell zones of spleen and lymph nodes (LNs) and strongly attracts naive T cells. In mice homozygous for the paucity of lymph node T cell (plt) mutation, naive T cells fail to home to LNs or the lymphoid regions of spleen. Here we demonstrate that expression of SLC is undetectable in plt mice. In addition t...

In this paper a two-state Markovian maintenance process where the true state is unknown will be considered. The operating cost per period is a continuous random variable which depends on the state of the process. If investigation cost is incurred at the beginning of any period, the system wit I be returned to the "in-control" state instantaneously. This problem is solved using the average crite...

The SLAC Linear Collider (SLC) is the prototype e+elinear collider. This talk will consist of an introduction to SLC, a description of the strategy for luminosity, a description of the systems for the transport and measurement of the polarized electroqt and a description of the present performance of the SLC and planned upgrades. The detector, SLD, and the status of the polarization asymmetry m...

Due to various upstream beam manipulations, the longitudinal bunch shape at the interaction point of the Stanford Linear Collider (SLC) is highly non-Gaussian. In this paper, we report beam-beam simulations with realistic longitudinal bunch shapes for the present SLC parameters and for the SLC-2000 luminosity upgrade. The simulation results allow us to estimate the luminosity enhancement due to...

The SLAC Controls Department has interfaced IBMCompatible PCs to the SLC Control System, for use by the Final Focus Test Beam (FFTB) experimenters, who are building new accelerator equipment and developing and testing it at their home institutions. They will bring the equipment.to SLAC and integrate it into the control system using a new software package. The machine physicists and operators wi...

‎in this paper‎, ‎we investigate some results on natural metrics on the $mu$-normal functions and meromorphic $q_p$-classes‎. ‎also‎, ‎these classes are shown to be complete metric spaces with respect to the corresponding metrics‎. ‎moreover‎, ‎compact composition operators $c_phi$ and lipschitz continuous operators acting from $mu$-normal functions to the meromorphic $q_p$-classes are characte...

in the present paper, among other results, a decomposition formula is given for the w-bounded continuous negative definite functions of a topological *-semigroup s with a weight function w into a proper h*-algebra a in terms of w-bounded continuous positive definite a-valued functions on s. a generalization of a well-known result of k. harzallah is obtained. an earlier conjecture of the author ...
