Overview

These proceedings contain descriptions of the latest experiments and results in a variety of hot topics, such as the growth of total cross sections, the ratio of real to imaginary parts of forward scattering amplitudes, etc. Current theories of particle interaction based on QCD were presented and confronted by the latest experimental results from FNAL, CERN, HERA and elsewhere. The theoretical situation seems less clear, or at least more open to argument and criticism, leveled by the different groups responsible and present at the workshop.Contents: Overview on Elastic Scattering and Total Cross-Sections (A Martin) Status of Fermilab E-710 (R Rubinstein), Luminosity-Independent Measurement of pp Elastic Scattering, Single Diffraction, Dissociation and Total Cross Section at s = 546 and 1800 GeV (P Giromini) Large N Theories with Glueball-Like Spectra (I R Klebanov & K Demeterfi) First Theorist's Gaze at HERA Data at Low xB (E M Levin) The Behavior of Cross Sections at Very High Energies (H Cheng) The Pomeron and QCD with Many Light Quarks (A R White) CDF Results on Electroweak Physics (H J Frisch) High Energy Asymptotics of Perturbative Multi-Color QCD (L N Lipatov) Hard Diffraction Processes (L Frankfur) A Chiral Condensate Search at the Tevatron (C C Taylor) New Hadronic State Observed in Extremely High Energy Cosmic-Ray Interactions (S Hasegawa) Elastic Spin Experiments at UNK, Fermilab and SSC (A D Krisch) Blois V: Experimental Summary (M G Albrow) Blois V: Summary Talk (F Halzen) and other papersReadership: High energy and nuclear physicists.
