Description/Abstract:
THIS SPECIAL ISSUE OF THE BEAM LINE DEALS WITH THE SUBJECT OF TECHNOLOGY TRANSFER IN HIGH ENERGY PHYSICS, TO DETERMINE WHETHER THE NATION CAN AFFORD TO SPEND SO MUCH ON PURE RESEARCH WHEN IT FACES SUCH DAUNTING PROBLEMS. SCIENTISTS ENGAGED IN BASIC RESEARCH TRY TO CONVINCE THE REST OF SOCIETY BOTH OF THE WORTH OF PURE SCIENCE AND OF ITS ECONOMIC UTILITY. THIS TECHNOLOGY TRANSFER ISSUE CLOSES WITH A PORTRAIT GALLERY OF INDIVIDUALS TRAINED IN HIGH ENERGY PHYSICS WHO HAVE GONE OUT INTO THE REAL WORLD AND MADE THEIR MARKS IN SUCH DIVERSE PRACTICES AS MEDICAL PHYSICS, MANAGEMENT CONSULTING, AND MICROPROCESSOR DESIGN.
