Particle identification by ionization measurements: Description of the CLEO dEdx system
Abstract We describe the design, construction and performance of a pressurized proportional chamber system intended to identify particles by means of their energy loss in thin gas samples. The system is part of the CLEO detector at the Cornell Electron-Positron Storage Ring (CESR).

Leptonic and Semileptonic Decays from CLEO‐c
The CLEO‐c measurement of the purely leptonic decay rate D+ → μ+v determines the value of the pseudoscalar decay constant fD+ = (222.6 ± 16.7−3.4+2.8) MeV, allowing for a precision test of strong interaction theories. Semileptonic decay branching ratios are also summarized.

The discovery of the B mesons
In 1983 the CLEO collaboration first, fully reconstructed B meson decays. I describe here what was done and how these procedures have evolved.

Future of Heavy Flavour Physics: Experimental Perspective
I discuss what measurements need to be done to search for physics beyond the Standard CKM model, rather than just what studies can be done in the near future. It is also important to accurately measure the CKM matrix elements. Current best estimates for two important elements are: jVcbj=0 :03810:0021 andjVub=Vcbj=0 :0850:019. Finally, future experiments are discussed.

Superfluid dynamics of the fractional quantum Hall state.
Cet effet Hall est du a un nouvel etat de la matiere ayant des proprietes reminescentes de superfluidite. La derivation de l'equation d'Euler et de la contrainte quantique qui determinent la dynamique du superfluide permettent d'expliquer l'incompressibilite du liquide, les excitations des magnetophonons et d'etudier les forces agissant sur des vortex dont l'ancrage est responsable du plateau dans la resistance Hall

Determination of the cross sections for the production of fragments from relativistic nucleus-nucleus interactions. I. Measurements.
Relativistic iron, lanthanum, holmium, and gold projectile nuclei with several different energies have been fragmented in targets of polyethylene, carbon, aluminum, copper, and lead. Our detectors cleanly resolve the individual charges of the heaviest of these fragments and provide some limited information on the masses. We have measured 1256 elemental partial cross sections for the production of fragments from interactions in these target materials. Values have been derived for another 417 cross sections in a hydrogen medium. These cross sections depend on the energy and mass of the projectile nuclei as well as on the nature of the target. Total charge-changing cross sections were also found, but only in a composite target, and have been shown to be weakly dependent on energy. The mean mass losses observed for fragments that have lost a few protons show that typically many neutrons are lost with each proton, producing fragment nuclei that must be highly proton rich, and consequently very unstable. The cross sections for charge pickup on heavy targets show a rapid increase with decreasing energy, particularly for the heaviest targets. The systematics of the dependencies of the partial cross sections will be discussed in a companion paper.

Acoustic energy and momentum in a moving medium
By exploiting the mathematical analogy between the propagation of sound in a nonhomogeneous potential flow and the propagation of a scalar field in curved space-time, various wave "energy" and wave "momentum" conservation laws are established in a systematic manner. In particular, the acoustic energy conservation law due to Blokhintsev appears as the result of the conservation of a mixed covariant and contravariant energy-momentum tensor, while the exchange of relative energy between the wave and mean flow, first noted by Longuet-Higgins and Stewart in the context of ocean waves, appears as the covariant conservation of the doubly contravariant form of the same energy-momentum tensor.
