Land Smith 2021 MELS ii Abstract Sina Queyras, in the essay “Lyric Conceptualism: A Manifesto in Progress,” describes the Lyric Conceptualist as a poet capable of recognizing the effects of disparate movements and employing a variety of lyric, conceptual, and language poetry techniques to continue to innovate in poetry without dismissing the work of other schools of poetic thought. Queyras sees the lyric conceptualist as an artistic curator who collects, modifies, selects, synthesizes, and adapts, to create verse that is both conceptual and accessible, using relevant materials and techniques from the past and present. This dissertation responds to Queyras’s idea with a collection of original poems in the lyric conceptualist mode, supported by a critical exegesis of that work.

    CERNNovember/December 2020 cerncourier.com COURIERReporting on international high-energy physics WLCOMEE CERN Courier – digital edition ADVANCING Welcome to the digital edition of the November/December 2020 issue of CERN Courier. CAVITY Superconducting radio-frequency (SRF) cavities drive accelerators around the world, TECHNOLOGY transferring energy efficiently from high-power radio waves to beams of charged particles. Behind the march to higher SRF-cavity performance is the TESLA Technology Neutrinos for peace Collaboration (p35), which was established in 1990 to advance technology for a linear Feebly interacting particles electron–positron collider. Though the linear collider envisaged by TESLA is yet ALICE’s dark side to be built (p9), its cavity technology is already established at the European X-Ray Free-Electron Laser at DESY (a cavity string for which graces the cover of this edition) and is being applied at similar broad-user-base facilities in the US and China. Accelerator technology developed for fundamental physics also continues to impact the medical arena. Normal-conducting RF technology developed for the proposed Compact Linear Collider at CERN is now being applied to a first-of-a-kind “FLASH-therapy” facility that uses electrons to destroy deep-seated tumours (p7), while proton beams are being used for novel non-invasive treatments of cardiac arrhythmias (p49). Meanwhile, GANIL’s innovative new SPIRAL2 linac will advance a wide range of applications in nuclear physics (p39). Detector technology also continues to offer unpredictable benefits – a powerful example being the potential for detectors developed to search for sterile neutrinos to replace increasingly outmoded traditional approaches to nuclear nonproliferation (p30).

It was another year of progress and noteworthy achievement, and we are delighted to share some of the highlights with you. In April, we celebrated the accomplishments of our 35th graduating class of Jefferson Scholars. In the class were a Schwarzman Scholar, a Fulbright Scholar, the Edgar Shannon Outstanding Engineering Student, the Ernest H. Ern Outstanding TIMOTHY J. INGRASSIA Chairman Student, and the Algernon Sydney Sullivan Award winner. The class also included the managing editor of The Cavalier Daily, a Gray-Carrington Scholarship recipient, two vice-chairs of the Judiciary Committee, and the chair of the University Guide Service, along with the president of the Raven Society and a quadruple All-American national champion in Mock Trial. Eight members of the class lived on the Lawn, and the group graduated with a cumulative GPA of 3.77. We also celebrated a very impressive accomplishment of a Scholar alumnus, who graduated in 2018 and became the eighth member of the Jefferson Scholars community to win a Marshall Scholarship. The Scholars returning to Grounds in the fall of 2019 are well positioned to continue the legacy of excellence established by the more than 900 alumni of the Foundation.

  • Experiments at Cern in 1986
    ORGANISATION EUROPÉENNE POUR LA RECHERCHE NUCLÉAIRE EUROPEAN ORGANIZATION FOR NUCLEAR RESEARCH W r EXPERIMENTS AT CERN IN 1986 GENEVA NOVEMBER 1986 INTRODUCTION This book is a compilation of the current experimental programme at CERN. The experiments listed are being performed at one of the following machines: the Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS), the Proton Synchrotron (PS) and the Synchro-Cyclotron (SC). The four experiments planned for the Large Electron Positron machine (LEP) are also listed. The programme has been determined by the CERN Research- Board, which advises the Director-General on experiments to be carried out at CERN. The Research Board acts on recommendations made by the Experiments Committees which are the SPSC, the PSCC and the LEPC. The composition of the Exper- iments Committees and of the Research Board as of 1st November, 1986 is given in tables 1-4. The schematic layouts of beams and experiments at the different machines appear in the beginning of the report. Each experiment is identified by a code which consists of a serial number and some characters denoting the machine and the area. In addition, a short mnemonic description of its physics purposes has been added in the hope of facilitating its identification. Each experiment is briefly described and a schematic layout of its appar- atus is included, together with lists of participants and institutions. The status of the experiments (preparation/data-taking/completed) corresponds to the situation as of 1st November, 1986. "Completed" means that data- taking is finished, not necessarily the analysis of the results; this status is kept for two years and then the experiment is removed from the catalogue.
