Introduction, Part B

A collection of documents produced by two Study Groups, one on a multi-TeV Proton Synchrotron and the other on 400*400 GeV/sup 2/ Proton Storage Rings are presented. In both studies the reactions of interest in the weak, electromagnetic and strong interactions are discussed. The technical feasibility of the relevant experiments is investigated by attempting, in each case, the design of an experimental set-up. Event rates are estimated using currently prevailing theoretical models and by extrapolation of results at present accelerators. In addition to the work of the two Study Groups, a section on the physics interests and technical problems of ep Storage Rings is included. 60 refs.
