Title:  Measurement of the Single Charged Pion Production Cross Section in Charged-Current 
Neutrino-Carbon Interactions


Abstract:

The discovery of neutrino oscillations is one of the most exciting recent developments in particle physics. 
Current and future neutrino experiments are aiming to make precise measurements of the oscillation 
parameters. Improving our understanding of neutrino-nucleus cross sections is crucial to these precision 
studies of neutrino oscillations. Interactions in the neutrino energy region around 1 GeV are particulary 
important because this is the region of the expected oscillation signal in many experiments, but the cross 
sections in this region are not very well-known. This energy region is complicated due to overlapping 
contributinos from quasi-elastic scatting, resonant single pion production, and deep ineleastic scattering. 
This dissertation describes a measurement of the cross section for resonant single charged pion production 
in charged-current muon neutrino interactions with a carbon target. The measurement was made using data 
collected by the K2K long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiemnt, which used a muon neutrino beam 
with a mean energy of 1.3 GeV. The results of this measurement are consistent with previous experiments 
and predictions based on a widely-accepted model.

Hi Fred (with copies to other possibly interested parties),

  I did a short study of the variation in the number of
strips above threshold in the MVD (this times something
like 50mV is what goes from the mvd to level 1 for a trigger).
I have received several emails, directly and indirectly,
about level-1's ability to find the vertex. One of them
said you see little variation in the mvd trigger signal
with the vertex position. You also told me this in person
in Santa Fe. If I ever knew, I have forgotten what the
variation was quantitatively. I did a calculation and
found the multiplicity signal to level 1 is 13+-4% smaller
for a vertex at +-40cm compared to z=0. I do not know
whether or not to classify this as significant. 

   My own thinking is that it would be acceptable to
ignore this correction in the first version of the
trigger. However, I do no think it is a good idea to make
an irrevocable decision to skip the z vertex correction.
One reason for this is that the variation in the multiplicity
with the vertex position depends on the shape of dN/deta -- 
which is currently unknown.  What if it varies enough with
impact parameter to cause trigger trouble? A double-peaked
distribution at medium impact parameters could cause the
trigger to prefer medium impact parameters at vertex positions
far from the center. In a year or so we will know the answers
to these questions and could make much more informed 
decisions.

  The summary of my results is on the web:

Local people saw some of this stuff today. I have added
a few plots since then.

they must not steal, nor commit lewdness, nor get drunk, nor commit murder, and that they too ought not to do these things; and that I intend in process of time to preach the same to them and come to them in their own country and castles (about three Days' journey from here, further inland) when I am acquainted with their language. They Bay I do well to teach the Christians; but immediately add, Diatennonjawij Assyreoni, hagiowisk, that is, "Why do so many Christians do these things?" They call us Assyreoni, that is, cloth-makers, or Charistooni, that is, iron workers, because our people first brought cloth and iron among them.
They will not come into a house where there is a men-struous woman, nor eat with her. No woman must touch their snares in which they catch deer, for they say the deer can scent it.
The other day an old woman came to our house, and told my people that her forefathers had told her "that Tharonhij-Jagon, that is, God, once went out a-walking with his brother, and a dispute arose between them, and ' God killed his brother." I suppose this fable took its rise from Cain and Abel. They have a droll theory of the Creation, for they think that a pregnant woman fell down from heaven, and that a tortoise, (of which there are plenty here, in this country, of two, three and four feet long, some with two heads, very mischievous and addicted to biting) took this pregnant woman on its back, because every place was covered with water ; and that the woman sitting upon the tortoise grabbled with her hands in the water, and scratched up some of the earth; whence it finally happened that the earth became elevated above the water. They think that there are more worlds than one, and that we came from another world.
The Mohawk Indians are divided into three tribes, which are called Ochkari, Anaware, Oknaho, that is, the bear, the tortoise and the wolf. Of these, the tortoise is the greatest and most eminent; and they boast that they are the oldest descendants of the woman before mentioned. These have made a fort of palisades, and they call their castle Asseru4. Those of the bear are the next to these, and their castle is called by them Banagiro. The last are a progeny of these, and their castle is called Thenondiogo.   Each of

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR CENTRAL MISSISSIPPI...
NORTHEAST LOUISIANA...AND EXTREME SOUTHEAST ARKANSAS

.DAY ONE...TODAY AND TONIGHT...

...FIRE DANGER...
THE DRY AIRMASS REMAINS PARKED OVER THE REGION. WINDS HAVE NOW
BECOME SOUTHERNLY AND A SLOW MODIFICATION IS TAKING PLACE TO THE
AIRMASS. HOWEVER...HIGH TEMPERATURES APPROACHING 90 DEGREES WILL
RESULT IN AFTERNOON RELATIVE HUMIDITIES VALUES AROUND 25 TO 33
PERCENT ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA. THE LOWEST VALUES WILL EXIST
ACROSS THE SOUTHEAST. THESE LOW HUMIDITIES WILL MAINTAIN A
SIGNIFICANT FIRE DANGER SITUATION FOR THE AREA.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY...

...DAYS TWO AND THREE...THURSDAY AND FRIDAY...
NO HAZARDOUS WEATHER IS EXPECTED AT THIS TIME.

...DAYS FOUR THROUGH SEVEN...SATURDAY THROUGH TUESDAY...
THE FIRE DANGER WILL REMAIN HIGH AS WE MOVE THROUGH THE WEEKEND
INTO NEXT WEEK. THE REASON FOR THIS IS THAT A COLD FRONT WILL
MOVE THROUGH THE AREA ON FRIDAY AND BEGIN TO PUSH ANOTHER SHOT OF
DRY AIR INTO THE AREA. ON SATURDAY...THERE WILL BE A COMBINATION
OF RELATIVE HUMIDITY VALUES IN THE LOWER TO MIDDLE 30S ALONG WITH
WINDS AROUND 15 MPH. THIS COMBINATION MAY BRING SOME OF THE WORST
FIRE CONDITIONS WE HAVE SEEN OVER THE PAST WEEKS...MAINLY IN PART
TO THE INCREASED WINDS.

ANOTHER COLD PUSH AND INCREASED WINDS ARE IN THE WORKS FOR MONDAY
AND THIS WILL BE ANOTHER PERIOD TO WATCH FOR FIRE WEATHER
CONCERNS.

Automated Reasoning in LabVIEW, and Some Elementary Thoughts on Proof
Theoretic Methods for Automating Interpretability
Grant Passmore
My talk will be quite elementary - I'll just give an introduction to
what I'm working on as to automated reasoning for National
Instruments' data-flow driven programming language, LabVIEW, and show
some examples of my approaches and little milestones thus far.  I'll
also maybe touch on some approaches I'm working on as to automating
interpretability between different logics, and maybe a bit as to my
work on formalizing fundamental results in proof theory (especially
Gentzen- style ordinal analysis and Hilbert's epsilon substitution
method) to automate the discovery of relative strengths and
combinatorial independencies of combined systems.

Comments To The FCC Concerning The Telegraphy Requirements For 
           An Amateur Radio License ( FCC 98-183 (E) )
                      (WT Docket No. 98-143)

                            Discussion

"Today, radiotelegraphy is just one facet of many diverse modes of radiocommunication that
require a technologically literate licensee"." In 1990, in response to the sentiment of the amateur
community, we (FCC) established a codeless Technician Class operator license". The codeless
Technician Class is now the dominant class, with numbers approaching 50% of all Amateur
Radio Operators. Since the establishment of the codeless Technician Class in 1990, the maritime
community has adopted more advanced methods of communication and has virtually abandoned
telegraphy. It has become apparent that the World Radiocommunications Conference(WRC),
scheduled for 2001, will move to eliminate the amateur telegraphy requirement contained in the
international Radio Regulations.

 The future of Amateur Radio in the United States depends upon attracting youngsters who have
grown up using computers.  How do we rationalize requiring these youngsters to memorize a 19th
century code as we enter the 21st century.
 
It is imperative that the FCC remove the "barrier" of an outdated telegraphy requirement from
it's Rules and Regulations.

                             Proposal

I am in agreement with the ARRL Proposal for the modification of the Rules, Regulations and
Band Plans with the exception of the telegraphy requirement.

It is my proposal that the FCC move to first reduce the telegraphy requirement to knowledge of
the Morse code for all license classes. Since the international regulations do not specify any
speed for knowledge of the Morse code, speed should be set at zero. All telegraphy examinations 
should be written (carried out on paper). This would eliminate the burden on the volunteer
examiners (VE) for the requirement of audio equipment and special needs for hearing disabled
applicants. It would also eliminate the problem of telegraphy examination credit for examinees
with a disability. 

It is my proposal the FCC secondly move to eliminate the telegraphy requirement from FCC
Rules and Regulations when the WRC acts to remove the telegraphy requirement from
international regulations.

Sincerely,

Don DeJarnette

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR EXPIRE.CSH

Expire.csh is used by NWS San Diego to check the expiration codes in a
product.  Incorrect codes will create a text product which can be alarmed.

To install:

1.  Create a subdirectory /awips/dev/bin/expire
2.  Put expire.csh into that subdirectory, as well as expirecodes.
3.  Edit expirecode to include any of the first three letters
which could appear in your zone codes (CAZ, PZZ (for marine), etc.).
4.  Edit your cron file to run the expire.csh at specified times of the
day.  A typical entry would look like this:

45 22 * * * /awips/dev/bin/expire/expire.csh LAXZFPSGX 1130 1 2

This entry would run at 2245 UTC every day for the LAXZFPSGX product.  The
proper expiration time would be for 1130Z.  The "1" after the 1130 would stand
for the next day (UTC), versus "0", which would be used for the same day.
The 2 at the end would correspond with the workstation in the product name.
The output is stored in LAXMISEXx (with the x standing for the workstation).
This is good for alarms for specific workstations.

The output name is changeable (change the line in expire.csh that starts out
as "set pil").

TRULY RESPONSE TO HOUSE FLOOR VOTE ON SPACE STATION

 
Richard H. Truly, Administrator of NASA, issued the following 
statement today following action by the House of Representatives 
to continue development of Space Station Freedom:

 
"The totally bipartisan vote in the House of Representatives to 
continue development of Space Station Freedom was a big victory 
for all  America.  It was a vote...
 

 
...to remain the leader in space exploration,
 

 
...to inspire and challenge our young people to do better.
 

 
...to reassert our technological leadership,.
 

 
...to make an investment in America's future, and set the stage 
for discovery and breakthroughs in medicine, materials, 
transporation and energy.
 

 
I am confident that Freedom will win support in the Senate.  
 

 
Much work remains to be done to provide a final FY 1992 budget 
for NASA that is well balanced between science, manned space 
flight and exploration, aeronautical research, earth observation 
and technology development. I remain committed to work toward 
that end."

chemin, j'ay rencontr le chef qui venoit au-devant de moy, accompagn d'une vingtaine d'hommes assez bien faits. Le chef estoit fort malade d'un flux, qui est une maladie dont les Sauvages meurent presque tous. A nostre rencontre, ce chef m'a donn une petite croix blanche et une perle qui n'estoit nullement belle, et en a donn autant au pre Jsuite,  mon frre et au sieur Duguay.
Nous nous sommes rendus  sa cabane, qui est leve  une hauteur de dix pieds de haut, de terre rapporte, et large de vingt-cinq et longue de quarante-cinq. Auprs de l sont huit cabanes. Devant celle du chef est le temple, cela forme un rond un peu en ovale, et renferme une place d'environ deux cent cinquante pas de large et trois cents de long. Il passe auprs un ruisseau, d'o ils tirent leur eau. J'ay trouv l une lettre de M. de Montigny, missionnaire des Taensas, qui en est parti depuis trois jours avec un Canadien pour retourner aux Taensas. Il marque avoir visit la plus grande partie des cabanes de cette nation, qu'il estime au nombre de quatre cents, dans l'espace de huit lieues de pays, sur le bord d'un ruisseau qui arrose ce pays. Il marque y avoir baptis cent quatre-vingt-cinq enfants depuis une anne jusqu' quatre. Du desbarquement de la rivire on monte une coste d'environ cent cinquante toises, fort escarpe, couverte de bois franc. Estant dessus la coste, on trouve un pays de plaines, prairies, remplies de petits costeaux, en quelques endroits des bouquets de bois, plusieurs de chesnes, et beaucoup de chemins qui se coupent, allant d'un hameau  l'autre ou  des cabanes. Ceux qui ont parcouru trois ou quatre lieues  la ronde disent avoir trouv partout le mesme pays, du bord de la coste  aller au village du chef. Ce que j'en ay veu, c'est un

                                 ORDER
 
        On January  8, 1993, the  Board docketed a protest  filed by
   James W.  Collins &  Associates, Inc. (JWC).   JWC  protested the
   award  of  contract number  N00600-93-C-0437,  under solicitation
   number N00600-92-R-2847, for automatic data processing  equipment
   to another offeror by the respondent, the Department of the Navy.
   JWC alleged that its cost proposals were not properly  evaluated,
   thereby resulting in it being unfairly eliminated as the possible
   lowest bidder.
 
        On January 13, 1993, the respondent telephoned the Board and
   stated that the parties had settled the protest.  On  January 14,
   the Board received  the protester's request for  dismissal, which
   states:  
 
        We have  settled our  dispute with  the Naval  Regional
        Contracting Center  and request the Board  dismiss with
        prejudice at no cost to the Government.
 
        Accordingly,  the protest is DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE.  Rule
   28(a).

tiply the breed of goats which afford fuch fine wool 
and if the filks, which are hardly fufficient to fupply
the few manufadures remaining in Perfia, continue

this Source of commerce muft be given up.
The fcond channel is a more fure one, by the way
of Bagdad, Aleppo, and other intermediate towns,
whofe merchants come to buy their goods at Baffora.
Coffee, linen, fpices, and other merchandife that pafs
this way, are taken in exchange for gold, French
woollen cloths, galls, and orpiment, which is an in-
gredient in colours, and much ufed by the eaftern
people to extirpate their hair.
Another much lefs considerable channel is that of
Arabia DeSerta. The Arabs, bordering upon Baffora,
repair annually to Aleppo in the Spring, to Sell camels.
It is uSual to give them credit for muffins, which they
buy very cheap, to the amount of Six hundred thou-
fand livres [25,000b]. They return in the autumn,
bringing woollen cloths, coral, hardware, and fome
glafs and mirrors from Venice. The Arabian cara-
vans are never moleited in their journey ; nor are fo-
reigners in any danger, if they take care to carry
along with them a perfon belonging to each of the
tribes they may happen to meet with. This road
through the defert would be univerfally preferred to
that of Bagdad, on account of fafety, expedition, and
the advantages of fale, if the Pacha of the province,
who has eftabliihed tolls in different parts of his terri-
tory, did not ufe every poffible precaution to hinder
this communication. It is only by eluding the vigi-
lance of his deputies, that one can prevail upon the
Arabs to carry with them fome goods, which will not
take up much room.

NASA ASTRONAUTS TO SPEAK TO FLORIDA LEGISLATORS, REPORTERS ON APRIL 2

	In conjunction with Space Day activities, Tallahassee news media
representatives will have a rare opportunity on April 2 to take part in an
informal question-and-answer session with NASA astronauts, observe state
legislators speaking to the crew aboard the International Space Station
and cover a Space Art Contest winner. 

	Space Day is an annual event in Tallahassee designed to increase
awareness of the nation's space program and its importance in Florida.

	Astronauts living aboard the International Space Station are
scheduled to engage in a conversation, at about 12:30 p.m., with Gov. Jeb
Bush, Lt. Gov. Frank Brogan and Speaker of the House Tom Feeney who will
be standing on the floor of the House Chamber in Tallahassee.

	Following the Space Station conversation, at about 1 p.m.,
astronauts Ken Cockrell, Mark Polansky and David Brown will be available
for an informal brief question-and-answer session at the House Office
Building, fifth floor Press Gallery. Cockrell and Polansky are veterans of
the Shuttle while Brown is scheduled to make his first flight next year. 

	At 1:30 p.m., High School Senior Rachel Liles from Dixie County
High School in Old Town, Fla., will be recognized as the winner of a state
wide art contest sponsored by Kennedy Space Center and several
contractors. Astronauts and Florida Commissioner of Education, Charlie
Crist, are scheduled to present Liles with a savings bond. Student art
work will be displayed on the 22nd floor of the New Capitol Building on
April 2. 

	Meanwhile, the public is invited to learn more about NASA programs
through exhibits displayed in front of City Hall on Saturday, March 31 for
"Springtime Tallahassee."  Displays highlighting the space program will
also be open to the public inside the Capitol on April 2.

	The Kennedy Space Center is one of NASA's largest centers,
employing 13,500 contractor and civil service employees.

was more life and business. Launches were discharging their cargoes at the river, and carts were hauling goods to the fort, where already were established several stores, a hotel, &c. Captain Sutter had only two mechanics in his employ, (a wagon-maker and a blacksmith,) whom he was then paying $]0a day. Merchants pay him a monthly rent of $100 per room, and whilst I was there, a two-story house in the fort was rented as a hotel for $500 a month.
At the urgent solicitation of many gentlemen, I delayed there, to participate in the first public celebration of our national anniversary at that fort, but on the 5th resumed the journey, and proceeded twenty-five miles up the American fork to a point on it now known as the Lower Mines, or Mormon Diggings. The hill-sides were thickly strewn with canvas tents and bush arbors; a store was erected, and several boarding shanties in operation. The day was intensely hot, yet about two hundred men were at work in the full glare of the sun, washing for goldsome with tin-pans, some with close-woven Indian baskets, but the greater part had a rude machine., known-as the cradle. This is on rockers, six or eight feet long, open at the foot, and at its head has a coarse grate, or sieve ; the bottom is rounded, with small cleats nailed across. Four men are required to work this machine ; one digs the ground in the bank close by the stream, another carries it to the cradle and empties it on the grate; a third gives a violent rocking motion to the machine ; whilst a fourth dashes on water from the stream itself. The sieve keeps the coarse stones from entering the cradle, the current of water washes off the earthy matter, and the gravel is gradually carried out at the foot of the machine, leaving the gold mixed with a heavy fine black sand above the first cleats. The sand and gold mixed together are then drawn off through auger holes into a pan below, are dried in the sun, and afterwards separated by blowing off the sand. A party of four men thus employed at the lower mines average $100 a day. The Indians, and those who have nothing but pans or willow baskets, gradually wash out the earth and separate the gravel by hand, leaving nothing but the gold mixed with sand, which is separated in the manner before described. The gold in the lower mines is in fine bright scales, of which I send several specimens.
As we ascended the south branch of the American fork, the
