Annual report scientific activities 1991

Abstract

In 1991 the TRIUMF project welcomed the announcement by the government of Canada of its intent to join British Columbia and Canada`s foreign partners in the construction of KAON. The ongoing science program of TRIUMF was beset with funding shortfalls but continued to provide world-class science. its science and technology transfer. The science covered in this report includes, a very important and difficult experiment on radiative muon capture which probes the standard model of quarks, leptons and unified forces. In the proton hall the new TISOL facility is providing important new information on nucleosynthesis in stars. In materials science studies with muons the elucidation of the properties of high-temperature superconductors remains of great interest. In 1991 the materials studied for this purpose include C{sup 60}, colloquially termed `bucky balls`. The TRIUMF/KAON Technology Transfer Office, funded by the provincial government, aided in the development of many new ventures. In the meantime a variety of accelerator studies prospered, some pertaining to the improvement of the existing TRIUMF cyclotron and some to TRIUMF`s future. (659 refs.).
