No. 22 (2000): Beam dynamics at various laboratories

Editors-in-chief: K. Hirata and J.M. Jowett, Editors: W. Chou, S. Ivanov, H. Mais, J. Wei, D.H. Whittum, and C. Zhang

Dr. K.Hirata, Chairman of ICFA Beam Dynamics Panel, suggested to organize a special chapter of “Accelerators in China” in the Newsletter No. 22 when he asked if I would be the active editor for this issue. Had realized my dereliction of duty for too few articles attracted from Chinese institutions in the previous issues though, I felt that the better idea was to create a special chapter of “Accelerators in Asia” in this issue, especially when the 5th Plenary Asian Committee for Future Accelerators (ACFA) would be held soon. The information on the Newsletter No. 22 was announced during the ACFA meeting held in May 29 to 31 at Korea.

As a result, we received 12 contributions from Asia area, they are: Zuping Liu and Weimin Li, Beam Physics Activities at NSRL; C.C. Kuo, Beam Dynamics Activities at SRRC; Yuzheng Lin, Beam Dynamics Activities in the Accelerator Lab of Tsinghua University; Nan Huang et al, Beam Dynamics Activities in SSRF; Jiuqing Wang, Beam Dynamics Studies in BEPC; J. W.White, A Synchrotron for Australia? (Australia is a member of ACFA); Yoshihiro Funakoshi, Present Status of the KEKB; Jinyu Tang et al, Beam Dynamics Activity in HIRFL; Eunsan Kim, Beam Instability Studies in PLS Storage Ring; Yumin Jin, Second OCPA Accelerator School and Chuang Zhang, APAC met in Korea. It is their contributions which make the Asian chapter true in this issue.
