Neutron-Capture Cross Sections of the Stable Lead Isotopes
Neutron-capture yields for several samples of separated lead isotopes were obtained at the Oak Ridge electron linear accelerator, in the neutron energy range above 2.5 keV. These were analyzed for resonance-capture areas and parameters. The data are included in a new evaluation of lead cross-section data.

Comments on the Doorway State in Pb 206
The neutron capture cross section of $^{206}\mathrm{Pb}(n, \ensuremath{\gamma})$ has been measured with high resolution at the Oak Ridge electron linear accelerator. The capture results show that the reported ${s}_{\frac{1}{2}}$ doorway in $^{206}\mathrm{Pb}$ is not observed in the photon channel.

Cosmic string loops and large-scale structure
We investigate the contribution made by small loops from a cosmic string network as seeds for large-scale structure formation. We show that cosmic string loops are highly correlated with the long-string network on large scales and therefore contribute significantly to the power spectrum of density perturbations if the average loop lifetime is comparable to or above one Hubble time. This effect further improves the large-scale bias problem previously identified in earlier studies of cosmic string models. @S0556-2821~99!01614-8# Quantitative predictions for the large-scale structure induced by cosmic strings have taken some time to crystallize as the understanding of cosmic string physics has improved @1#. In particular, the role of small loops produced by the string network has evolved from a potential one-to-one correspondence between loops and cosmological objects @2# through to a completely subsidiary role relative to the wakes swept out by long strings @3#. This dethronement of loops was a result of numerical studies which showed that the average loop size l ¯ 5at was much smaller than the horizon,

GENERATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF 5-MICRON ELECTRON BEAM FOR PROBING OPTICAL SCALE STRUCTURES
In recent years advanced acceleration technologies have progress toward combination of electron beam, laser and optical scale dielectric structures. In present paper described generation of the electron beam probe with parameters satisfied to perform test of such optical structures.

Observational Limit on Gravitational Waves from Binary Neutron Stars in the Galaxy
Using optimal matched filtering, we search 25 hours of data from the LIGO 40-m prototype laser interferometric gravitational-wave detector for gravitational-wave chirps emitted by coalescing binary systems within our Galaxy. This is the first test of this filtering technique on real interferometric data. An upper limit on the rate R of neutron star binary inspirals in our Galaxy is obtained: with 90% confidence, R<0.5h-1. Similar experiments with LIGO interferometers will provide constraints on the population of tight binary neutron star systems in the Universe.

Detecting a stochastic background of gravitational radiation: Signal processing strategies and sensitivities
outputs of two detectors are discussed. We briefly describe a computer simulation that was used to ‘‘experimentally’’ verify the theoretical calculations derived in the paper, and which mimics the generation and detection of a simulated stochastic gravity-wave signal in the presence of simulated detector noise. Numerous graphs and tables of numerical data for the five major interferometers ~LIGO-WA, LIGO-LA, VIRGO, GEO600, and TAMA-300! are also given. This information consists of graphs of the noise power spectra, overlap reduction functions, and optimal filter functions; also included are tables of the signal-to-noise ratios and sensitivity levels for cross-correlation measurements between different detector pairs. The treatment given in this paper should be accessible to both theorists involved in data analysis and experimentalists involved in detector design and data acquisition. @S0556-2821~99!02708-3#
