An observation of the SQS mode in a gas counter
Abstract The SQS mode has been observed with α-rays and a counter using 25 μm thick anode wire for comparatively simple gases, 95% Ar + 5% CO 2 , 90% Ar + 10% CH 4 , CO 2 , CH 4 and iso-C 4 H 10 . The curves of gas multiplication are presented.

A honeycomb sandwich structure vacuum jacket for cryogenic targets
Abstract Cryogenic targets (H 2 , D 2 and 4 He) have been built for use in the study of photonuclear reactions with a π sr spectrometer, TAGX, at the 1.3 GeV Tokyo electron synchrotron. A new type of vacuum jacket, fabricated from plastic honeycomb core and Mylar skins, has been used in the target system for more than 5000 hours. The average radiation thickness and the average density of this jacket are measured to be 3.3 × 10 −3 X 0 and 0.15 g/cm 3 , respectively.

Neutral-pion photoproduction on the deuteron.
Large-angle cross sections for ..gamma..d..--> pi../sup 0/d are systematically measured in a photon energy range between 500 and 1000 MeV. A good fit is obtained by use of a Glauber model calculation which includes the dibaryon resonances /sup 3/F/sub 3/(2.26) and /sup 1/G/sub 4/(2.51), but the fit has an unusual nature in the role of resonance and nonresonance contributions.

Differential cross sections of neutral pion photoproduction from hydrogen in the energy region from 390 MeV to 975 MeV
The differential cross sections of the reaction γp→π0p have been measured at photon energies between 390 MeV and 975 MeV with an energy step of 20 or 25 MeV. The angular region covers 11 angles between 15° and 130° in the c.m.s. A combination of a magnetic spectrometer and photon detector was used for the measurement in the angular region from 50° to 130°. At forward angles of 15°, 35° and 50°, π0 mesons were detected using a π0 detector consisting of a pair of photon detectors. The data obtained with two different detection systems overlap at the angle of 50° and coincide with each other within the experimental error. The results are compared with those of phenomenological partial-wave analyses.

Polarimeter System for High-Energy Protons Using Carbon Plate and Liquid Hydrogen
In order to measure recoil proton polarization for the reaction γ+p→π°+p in a wide energy range, a polarimeter system has been constructed using carbon plate and liquid hydrogen as the scatterer. It consists of multi-wire proportional chambers, wire spark chambers, scintillation counter hodoscopes, and scatterers. Carbon plates for lower energy protons and liquid hydrogen for higher-energy protons were used as scatterers. The liquid-hydrogen polarimeter has worked reliably in continuous operation for a long time. The performance of the system in the experiment is described.

Thermal equilibria of accretion disks
We show that most of hot, optically thin accretion disk models which ignore advective cooling are not self-consistent. We have found new types of optically thin disk solutions where cooling is dominated by radial advection of heat. These new solutions are thermally and viscously stable.

Field emission from carbon nanotubes in DC and pulsed mode
Abstract Multi-wall Carbon Nanotube (CNT) emitters were tested in a combined diode-RF electron gun. Field emission of the nanotubes was observed at 5–30 MV/m, using a 250 ns FWHM long pulse with a peak voltage of 80–470 kV. The field emission threshold is compatible with that found from previous DC testing. We have extracted from a continuous field emitter up to a nanoCoulomb of charge and measured an emittance of 4 mm mrad with a 2 pC electron beam. The total charge emission during RF operation, using the 1.5 GHz, 2 cell RF structure, was found dependent on its period. RF operation showed that back bombarding electrons with up to 5 MeV did not impair the emission stability of the CNTs.

Electron Cloud Effects in the KEK‐PS and the KEK/JAERI Joint Project
An e‐p instability is potentially a serious problem for proton rings in JKJ, which forces us to study the e‐p instability in several high‐intensity proton rings. This work informs JKJ whether we have to take measures to cure the instability. A TiN coating on the chamber surface is one of remedies. Results of SEY measurements performed at KEK are discussed. The observation of electron cloud candidates at the KEK 12 GeV PS Main Ring is also presented.
