Differential cross sections of proton compton scattering in the resonance region
Differential cross sections of proton Compton scattering have been measured in the energy range between 375 MeV and 1150 MeV in steps of 25 MeV at c.m. angles of 130°, 100° and 70°. The recoil proton was detected with a magnetic spectrometer. In coincidence with the proton, the scattered photon was detected with a lead-glass Cerenkov counter of the total absorption type. 
 
Theoretical calculations based on an isobar model with two components, that is, the resonance plus the background, were practiced. The photon couplings of the second resonance region were determined from the proton Compton data for the firs time. The results were that the helicity 12 photon couplings of P11(1470) and S11(1535), and the helicity 32 photon coupling of D13(1520) were consistent with those determined from the single-pion photoproduction data; however, the helicity 12 photon coupling of D13(1520) required a somewhat larger value than that from the single-pion photoproduction data.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Resonant Excitation of Disk Oscillations in Deformed Disks. V. Effects of Dissipative Process
It is suggested that a set of positive- and negative-energy oscillations can be resonantly excited in the inner region of deformed (warped or eccentric) relativistic disks. In this paper we examine how a dissipative process affects this wave excitation. The results show that when the resonant condition in frequency is roughly satisfied, and thus the oscillations are excited, the introduction of a dissipative process works so as to decrease the growth rate of the oscillations. When the frequency difference between the two oscillations is larger than a certain amount that is required by the resonant condition, however, the oscillations are excited by introducing a dissipative process. This excitation by the dissipative process can be understood as a special example of a double-diffusive instability.

Correlated Frequency-Changes of Trapped Vertical p-mode Oscillations and kHz QPOs
AbstractWe have examined the frequencies of trapped two-armed (m = 2) nearly verticaloscillations (vertical p-mode) in vertically isothermal disks with toroidal magneticﬁelds. The magnetic ﬁelds are stratiﬁed so that the Alfv´en speed, c A , is constant inthe vertical direction. We have particularly focused our attention on how frequenciesof the fundamental mode (n r = 0) and ﬁrst overtone (n r = 1) in the radial directionchange with correlation, when theratioc 2A /cs changes, c s beingthe isothermal acousticspeed. The results show that in the case where the oscillations are fundamentalmode (n=1) in the vertical direction, the correlated frequency changes of the above-mentioned oscillations seem towell describe, withstandard values ofthe mass andspinof the central sources, the frequency correlation of kHz QPOs observed in neutron-starX-ray binaries.Key words:accretion, accrection disks — quasi-periodic oscillations — verticalp-mode oscillations — waves — X-rays; stars1. IntroductionMany authors now think that the kilo-hertz quasi-periodic oscillations (kHz QPOs) ob-served in low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs) are some kinds of disk oscillations in a strong gravi-tational ﬁeld. Understanding their origin is of importance, since it will become a promising toolto evaluate the mass and spin of the central sources as well as the disk structure surrounding thesources. Many models of kHz QPOs related to disk oscillations and waves have been proposed.None of them, however, can suﬃciently well describe the observed frequency correlation of thetwin kHz QPOs (Lin et al. 2010).As one of possible models of kHz QPOs, for example, we proposed a disk-oscillationmodel in deformed disks (Kato and Fukue 2006), based on the fact that in deformed disks aset of oscillations with positive and negative wave energies are excited resonantly (Kato 2004,1

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.

Resonant Excitation of Disk Oscillations in Deformed Disks IV: A New Formulation Studying Stability
The possibility has been suggested that high-frequency quasi-periodic oscillations observed in low-mass X-ray binaries are resonantly excited disk oscillations in deformed (warped or eccentric) relativistic disks (Kato 2004). In this paper we examine this wave excitation process from a viewpoint somewhat different from that of previous studies. We study how amplitudes of a set of normal mode oscillations change secularly with time by their mutual couplings through disk deformation. As a first step, we consider the case where the number of oscillation modes contributing to the resonance coupling is two. The results show that two prograde oscillations interacting through disk deformation can grow if their wave energies have opposite signs.
