- The MEGA experiment, which is a search for the decay murarregamma with a branching ratio sensitivity of about 10-13, employs highly modular, fast detectors, state-of-the-art electronics, and a staged trigger with on-line filters. The detectors are contained in a 1.5-T solenoidal field produced by a superconducting magnet. Positrons are confined to the central region and are measured by a set of thin MWPCs. Photons are measured by one of four layers of pair spectrometers in the outer region. Most aspects of the design have been validated in engineering runs; data taking will begin in 1990 with much of the electron arm and one pair spectrometer layer installed.

Cu valence states in superconducting BiPbSrCaCuO system

- The oxidation states of Bi, Pb, and Cu in the BiPbSrCaCuO (BPSCCO) system have been determined by a combination of volumetric measurement technique and iodometric titration. It was found that, in contrast to previous reports, the concentration of the Cu3+ ions decreased with increasing Pb content, and Cu3+ ions were absent in samples of Bi1.6Pb0.4Sr1.6Ca2Cu3O9.8, while a Tc at 108 K and a Jc of greater than 12,000 A/cm2 at 77 K were observed. The 110 K phase in BPSCCO was stabilized and showed a high tolerance to change in oxygen partial pressure during sintering. In Pb-doped materials, Bi appears to be trivalent while Pb was determined to be mixed-valence Pb4+ Pb2+. It is suggested that superconductivity in BPSCCO may result from a dynamic transfer of holes from Bi PbO layers toward CuO2 planes
