Bartlett, D.

The experimental program in 1979 was directed toward the preparation of two major detectors: the new multiparticle spectrometer facility for the Fermilab tagged photon beam and the lepton/total energy detector (MAC) for PEP. The two large Cerenkov counters were installed and made operational during a test beam run at Fermilab and substantial progress was made on the track reconstruction programs. The MAC central drift chamber was completed and delivered at SLAC and operational tests were started. Work produced by the theory group included studies of color separation in multi-hadron jet production, diffractive jet production in photo-induced reactions, the relation between the several generations of leptons and quarks, tests of unified gauge theories, gauge hierarchies, and several problems in grand unified theories.
