Beam emittance dilution caused by wakefield effects is one of the important issues in the SLC linac. The detection of beam induced dipole mode signals in the C.. band range could provide a direct measure of the strength of transverse wakefield kicks the beam experiences in the accelerating structures. We investigate the applicability of these microwave signals for beam steering purposes. The RF...

We describe a possible replacement for the SLC damping rings that would generate beams with normalized horizontal emittances of rcz = 9 x 10B6 m-rad when uncoupled; this is more than three times smaller than that generated by the current rings. The primary difference between the new design and the current ring is the arc cell structure; the insertion regions, the kickers, and the RF are essenti...

Beam emittance dilution by self induced transverse elds (wake elds) in accelerating structures is a key problem in linear accelerators. To minimize the wake eld e ects the beam trajectory must be precisely centered within the structures. An e cient way to achieve this is to detect beam induced microwave signals in the lowest dipole mode band and to steer the beam by minimizing these signals. Th...

The solute carrier (Slc) superfamily is a major group of membrane transport proteins present in mammalian cells. Although Slc transporters play essential and diverse roles in the central nervous system, the localization and function of the vast majority of Slc genes in the mammalian brain are largely unknown. Using high-throughput in situ hybridization data generated by the Allen Brain Atlas, w...

Misalignments of magnetic quadrupoles and biases in beam position monitors (BPMs) in the Stanford Linear Collider (SLC) linac can lead to a situation in which the beam is off-center in the-disk-loaded waveguide accelerator structure. The off-center beam produces wakefields which can limit SLC performance by causing unacceptably large emittance growth. We present a general method for determining...

Several studies have shown that melanin-concentrating hormone (MCH) is an orexigenic peptide in rat. In the present study, a structure-activity relationship with MCH analogs was performed in rat, both in vitro and in vivo. On rat recombinant SLC-1 receptor, both cAMP inhibition and [(125)I]S36057 binding were measured. In vivo, these analogs were injected intracerebroventricularly in rats and t...

A&TRACT Linear colliders require high peak current beams with low duty factors. Several methods to produce polarized e’ beams-for accelerators have been developed. The SLC, the first linear collider, utilizes a photocathode gun with a GaAs cathode. Although photocathode sources are probably the only er@ical alternative for the next generation of linear colliders, several problems remain to be s...

Recent progress with the SLC as a prototype linear collider for high energy e+ecollisions is reviewed. Recent advances in the production of high intensity beams of polarized e-s are also discussed. The SLD Collaboration has embarked on a precision measurement of the left-right polarization asymmetry ALR at the Z pole with polarized electrons. Results and future plans are presented. 1. The SLC P...

A monoclonal antibody, 43-9F, specifically recognizes a tumor-associated antigen expressed both on surface membrane glycoproteins and on secreted soluble mucins of human squamous lung carcinoma (SLC) cells, and the corresponding antigen can be detected as a circulating tumor marker in plasma of SLC patients. Thin-layer chromatography immunostaining of neutral glycolipids extracted from SLC cell...

Secondary lymphoid tissue chemokine (SLC) is a CC chemokine that is selective in its recruitment of naive T cells and dendritic cells (DCs). In the lymph node, SLC is believed to play an important role in the initiation of an immune response by colocalizing naive T cells with DC-presenting antigen. Here, we used SLC as a treatment for tumors established from the poorly immunogenic B16 melanoma....
