Overview

The purpose of the symposium is to discuss current experimental and theoretical studies of weak and electromagnetic interactions in nuclei, emphasizing fundamental problems of particle, nuclear and astrophysics. Subjects discussed included symmetries and conservation laws, neutrino physics, nuclear weak process and weak form factors, electromagnetic probes for hadrons and nuclear structures, symmetries and flavornuclei, new facilities, and others.Contents: New Fundamental Symmetries of Nature: Hints and Tests (R N Mohapatra) Present and Future of the Measurement of Time Reversal Invariance with Very Low Energy Particles (A Masaike) CP Violation in B Physics (A I Sanda) Precision Polarization Measurements in Weak Interactions (J Deutsch) The Solar Neutrino Situation: A Theorist's Perspective (D N Schramm) GALLEX and the 7Be Solar Neutrino Problem (T Kirsten) Cosmological and Astrophysical Implications of Light Neutrinos (J R Primack) Searching for Neutrino Oscillations with LSND (I N Stancu) Status of the Troitsk Experiment on the Search for the Electron Antineutrino Rest Mass in Tritium Beta-Decay (V M Lobashev) Double Beta Decay and Dark Matter Search with Enriched Ge Detectors (H V Klapdor-Kleingrothaus) Status of the NEMO Double Beta Decay Experiment (Ph Hubert) Gamow-Teller Strength in Light Nuclei (B A Brown) Nuclear Spin-Isopin Response and Weak Processes (M Fujiwara et al) Nuclear Responses to Electro-Weak Probes and In-Medium Chiral Perturbation Theory (K Kubodera et al) Neutral Weak Currents of the Nucleon (D H Beck) The Internal Spin Structure of the Nucleon (U Stiegler) Charge Symmetry Violation in Nuclear Physics (A W Thomas & K Saito) Study of P(T) Violation in N NN Process (T Kishimoto) Thermal Detectors for Neutrino Physics: Results and Developments (A Giuliani et al) KARMEN: Neutrino Interactions with Carbon and Search for Neutrino Oscillations (J Kleinfeller et al) The San Onofre Reactor Neutrino Experiment: A Low Energy Test of the Atmospheric Neutrino Anomaly (A Piepke et al) Status of Sudbury Neutrino Observatory (G T Ewan) Status of DA NE and KLOE (F Cervelli) Physics Program and Experimental Equipment at CEBAF (V D Burkert) The LISS Project at IUCF (J M Cameron) Electromagnetic and Weak Probes for Symmetry Studies at RCNP (H Ejiri) Symmetry Problems in Low Energy Physics (E M Henley) and other papersReadership: Graduate level and above in the fields of high energy physics, nuclear physics and astrophysics.
