CORNELL: CESR's progress

Cornell's CESR electron-positron collider passed three significant milestones last year: the CUSB group completed its experimental programme after eleven years, and the experiment was removed; the CLEO collaboration brought the new CLEO II version into action and reported first results; with a single interaction region, CESR established new luminosity (related to collision rate) records. The CLEO group will continue to exploit these favourable collision conditions, running at the broad upsilon 4s resonance to accumulate a large sample of B mesons (containing the fifth ('beauty') quark)
