Abstract
By the best indicators 1987 was a good year for TRIUMF and its science. Although the number of employed staff and the funding was exactly the same as for 1986 there was growth in the number of experiments performed, the number of users participating in experiments, the number of new proposals for experiments, the delivery of beam to experiments, the number of papers published, the length of this annual report and, probably, the number of members of the public who toured TRIUMF and the coverage of TRIUMF`s program by the various media. Most of the brief accounts of research progress in this report speak for themselves. The various activities of TRIUMF, as described in this report, are intended to convey how the project fulfills its national purpose. This purpose has evolved. Although the purpose does not appear to be concisely articulated anywhere it probably includes all of the following: (1) to serve as a high-profile laboratory in fundamental subatomic science constituting Canada`s contribution to the world network of large accelerator facilities and aiming to achieve, in this field, the highest international standards of excellence; (2) to provide, in subatomic physics, a program of national significance easily accessible to scientists from
