[en] SNEAP 82, the annual meeting of the Symposium of Northeast Accelerator Personnel, was held at the Seattle Center in Seattle, Washington on October 6-9, 1982. It was organized by the University of Washington Nuclear Physics Laboratory. A total of 73 participants represented 43 labs and companies from 8 countries. It is clear that SNEAP remains Northeast for purely historical reasons. This proceedings of SNEAP 82 was prepared from two sources, manuscripts of papers presented at the meeting, prepared by the speakers themselves, and tapes of discussions held during the sessions. The transcriptions of the tapes have been edited to improve readability and clarity, with attention to preserving the flavor of the meeting. The content of the papers is the responsibility of the authors; the content of the discussions as transcribed here is partly the responsibility of the editor, who may not have understood every thing that was going on
