The general QCD parametrization and the large Nc description: Some remarks
Stimulated by a recent paper of Buchmann and Lebed,a comparison is presented of the two methods mentioned in the title for treating hadron properties in QCD.Doubts arise on the equivalence of the large Nc description to real QCD. (PACS: 12.38.Aw; 11.15.Pg; 13.40.Dk)

The non-relativistic quark model
The classification scheme and decay properties of hadron states are investigated in the framework of the non relativistic quark model. The main successes and the unsolved difficulties of the model are presented indicating the future work which could be done to understand and exploit the non-relativistic quark ideas.РезюмеИсследованы схема классификации и распадные свойства адронов в рамках статической модели кварков. Изложены главные успехи и нерешенные проблемы модели, указывая задачи, которые должны быть решены для лучшего понимания и использования нерелятивистских идей.

New Results in the Search of Quarks in Matter by the Magnetic Levitation Electrometer
Abstract The results of many runs performed levitating in succession several spheres without opening the levitation chamber show the existence of an additional (magneto-electric) force acting on the sphere. Ignoring this force in the analysis of the data produces “spurious” fractional charges.

Comment on "Chiral symmetry and the intrinsic structure of the nucleon"- by D.B.Leinweber,A.W.Thomas and R.D.Young
Some remarks are presented on a recent paper (Leinweber,Thomas and Young, Phys.Rev.Lett. 86, 5011, 2001). In particular a statement of the above paper on the fact that the ratio between the magnetic moments of proton and neutron should remain constant at -3/2, independent of the change of the quark mass is discussed on the basis of the general parameterization.

SASD and the CERN / SPS run-time coordinator
Abstract Structured Analysis and Structure Design (SASD) provides us with a handy way of specifying the flow of data between the different modules (functional units) of a system. But the formalism loses its immediacy when the control flow has to be taken into account as well. Moreover, due to the lack of appropriate software infrastructure, very often the actual implementation of the system does not reflect the module decoupling and independence so much emphasized at the design stage. In this paper the run-time coordinator, a complete software infrastructure to support a real decoupling of the functional units, is described. Special attention is given to the complementarity of our approach and the SASD methodology.

Determination of coupled-lattice properties using turn-by-turn data
A formalism for extracting coupled betatron parameters from multiturn, shock excited, beam position monitor data is described. The most important results are nonperturbative in that they do not rely on the underlying ideal lattice model. Except for damping, which is assumed to be exponential and small enough to be removed empirically, the description is symplectic. As well as simplifying the description, this leads to self-consistency checks that are applied to the data. The most important of these is a {open_quotes}magic ratio{close_quotes} of Fourier coefficients that is required to be a lattice invariant, the same at every beam position monitor. All formulas are applied to both real and simulated data. The real data was acquired June, 1992 at LEP as part of decoupling studies, using the LEP beam orbit measurement system. Simulated data, obtained by numerical tracking (TEAPOT) in the same (except for unknown errors) lattice, agrees well with real data when subjected to identical analysis. For both datasets, deviations between extracted and design parameters and deviations from self-consistency can be accounted for by noise and signal processing limitations. This investigation demonstrates that the LEP beam position system yields reliable local coupling measurements. It can be conservatively assumed that systems of similar design at the SSC and LHC will provide the measurements needed for local decoupling.

Electron-positron collisions at 209 GeV in LEP
The Large Electron-Positron Collider (LEP) at CERN closed down in November 2000. During the year 2000 electron-positron collisions were established at centre-of-mass energies of up to 209 GeV. The energy reach of LEP was thus extended by another 7 GeV compared to the year 1999. At the same time the luminosity production was kept high and the total delivered luminosity for the year was 233 pb/sup -1/. High beam energy and high luminosity extended the discovery reach of LEP. The successful energy increase of LEP is analysed and the operation and performance in the regime of ultra-strong damping is described.
