Enhancement of muonium emission rate from silica aerogel with a laser-ablated surface
e ) atoms from a laser-processed aerogel surface into vacuumwas studied for the rst time. Laser ablation was used to create hole-like regions withdiameter of about 270 m in a triangular pattern with hole separation in the range of300{500 m. The emission probability for the laser-processed aerogel sample is at leasteight times higher than for a uniform one.

Radioactive Muonic Atom Studies with Intense Muon Beams
New intense muon beams with flux several orders of magnitude higher than at present muon facilities would allow many novel experimental studies that were until now statistically not feasible. The investigation of the nuclear properties of short‐lived nuclei using muonic atom spectroscopy would become possible. In this paper, the recent progress of a feasibility study at RIKEN‐RAL muon facility using the cold hydrogen film method to produce radioactive muonic atoms is being reported. The first experimental results have just been obtained with stable argon ions implanted in solid deuterium films.

Precise measurement of the positive muon anomalous magnetic moment.
A precise measurement of the anomalous g value, a(mu) = (g-2)/2, for the positive muon has been made at the Brookhaven Alternating Gradient Synchrotron. The result a(mu+) = 11 659 202(14) (6) x 10(-10) (1.3 ppm) is in good agreement with previous measurements and has an error one third that of the combined previous data. The current theoretical value from the standard model is a(mu)(SM) = 11 659 159.6(6.7) x 10(-10) (0.57 ppm) and a(mu)(exp) - a(mu)(SM) = 43(16) x 10(-10) in which a(mu)(exp) is the world average experimental value.

Study of top-quark reconstruction with LCD Fast Simulation
We report the study of top-quark reconstruction in $e^+e^- \to t\bar{t}$ events at a 500 GeV linear collider using the LCD Fast Simulator. The final states of 6 jets as well as 4 jets and lepton are used. In order to reconstruct the jets, the performance of charged and neutral cluster separation are studied. We compare top-quark reconstruction for the LCD Small and LCD Large detectors, including the effect of varying the calorimeter granularity.

A Modified Glauber Approximation and the Formation of Shock Waves in High-Energy Heavy Ion Collisions
Coherent features in high energy heavy ion collisions are investigated from a microscopic viewpoint. A modified Glauber approximation which enables us to include the slowing down of the relative motion between the centers of masses of both nuclei is presented. The generation of the shock wave is shown to be suppressed by this slowing down effect. As an application inclusive nucleon spectra and the two-particle correlation are calculated in the case of Ne+U collision at 400 Me V! A. l ) (which are referred to as I hereafter) we investigated a possible microscopic mechanism for shock wave generation in high energy heavy ion collisions. The nuclear excitation induced by a nuclear collision was de­ scribed in terms of phonons. It was shown that as the collision proceeds phonons are coherently excited and show a characteristic feature of the shock wave. In this treatment the action of the projectile on the target was replaced by that of a potential moving with a constant velocity. We may construct this potential by superposing the nucleonic potential between projectile nucleons and the target ones with amplitudes of nucleonic states in both nuclei. To treat both systems equally from a microscopic viewpoint, one of the authors (M.I) proposed a formalism which is essentially an application of the Glauber approximation to the process. 2 ) The assembly of nucleons in the projectile nucleus was assumed to move in a group during the collision and the Glauber approximation was applied to the relative motion between the centers of masses of the projectile and the target nucleus. In this treatment the deceleration of the relative motion due to the nuclear excitation was not taken into account. In this paper we extend the Glauber approximation so as to take into account the slowing down of the relative motion. In § 2 the formulation of the modified Glauber approximation is presented.

Design and Status of the SuperKEKB Accelerator Control Network System
We have upgraded the accelerator control network system for SuperKEKB, the next generation B-factory experiment in Japan. The designed network system has the higher performance based on the wider bandwidth data transfer, and more reliable and redundant configuration. For the SuperKEKB beamline construction and accelerator components maintenance, we have installed the new wireless network system consists with the Leaky Coaxial (LCX) cable antennas and collinear antennas into the 3 km circumference accelerator tunnel. In this paper, we describe the design and current status of the SuperKEKB accelerator control network system.

Rotating Bag Model for Hadrons
The MIT bag model!) has been quite successful in reproducing the observed masses and other static properties of the low-lying hadrons. It is very important to discuss whether or not excited states of the hadrons (resonances) can be explained in the framework of the bag model. A number of excited states have been described successfully by considering collective excitations of the bag.) In particular, Johnson and Thorn) investigated a series of excited states known as the Regge trajectory by using the rotating bag model. They assumed that the rotating bag has stringlike shape with two ends by the centrifugal force and the transverse length is negligible compared with its longitudinal one. From this onedimensional bag model, they succeeded in reproducing the experimental value of the Regge slope very well. Furthermore it was showt: by Wakimaru and one of the present authors (M. I.) that this simple model can explain not only the Regge slope but also the energy spectra of the trajectories.) On the other hand, Eguchi and Migdal et aJ.5) also discussed the excited states by using their string models 'which are independent of the bag model. Any string model which has been proposed is based on the assumption that the shape is stringlike or one-dimensional. Is the assumption of the stringlike shape, however, surely true? section of the stringlike bag, which we call tube, can be given by
