Daresbury 1991/92

The report gives an overview of the activities over the year 1991/92. There are more than 4000 registered uses of the facilities at Daresbury so only the highlights can be included. The largest programme is that centred on the Synchrotron Radiation source. During the year this was shut down so that a second superconducting wiggler magnet could be installed. The smallest programme is that associated with Theory, Computational Science and Computing. Collaboration between the Medical and the Science and Engineering Research Councils reflects the interest of both in structural biology. A feasibility study for an Advanced Proton Source has been undertaken as part of the long-term planning for the laboratory. The work on EUROGAM, a Joint UK/France Gamma-Ray Detector is reported. A list of publications of scientists using the facilities at the laboratory is included. Separate appendices are available on the SRS, NSF (Nuclear Structure) and the Theory, Computational Science and Computing facilities. (UK)
