This reprint volume is in honour of one of the leaders of Italian high-energy physics, Antonino Zichichi, who is now 65 years old. It covers the first part of his activity: the years 1959–1976, probably the most intense of his scientific career. The volume includes reprints of articles and of some published laboratory reports, documenting the extraordinary constancy of Zichichi in a scientific programme which spanned more than a decade and laid the foundations for the subsequent discovery by M Perl of the heavy lepton, HL (now called τ), first proposed and searched for at CERN and Frascati by Zichichi in the early sixties.Contents:The Anomalous Magnetic Moment of the Muon (G Charpak et al.)A Telescope to Identify Electrons in the Presence of Pion Background (T Massam et al.)Proton–Antiproton Annihilation into Electrons, Muons and Vector Bosons (A Zichichi et al.)An Experiment on the Time-Like Electromagnetic Structure of the Proton (M Conversi et al.)The Leptonic Annihilation Modes of the Proton–Antiproton System at 6.8 (GeV/c)2 Timelike Four-Momentum Transfer (M Conversi et al.)Validity of the Leptonic Selection Rules for the (μeγ) Vertex at High Four-Momentum Transfers (V Alles-Borelli et al.)Limits on the Electromagnetic Production of Heavy Leptons (V Alles-Borelli et al.)Experimental Proof of the Inadequacy of the Peaking Approximation in Radiative Corrections (V Alles-Borelli et al.)Limits on the Mass of Heavy Leptons (M Bernardini et al.)Why (e+e-) Physics Is Fascinating (A Zichichi)and other papersReadership: High energy physicists.Key Features:Familiarizes readers with the Chinese economy in transition and the Chinese financial market, so that they can make their own judgement as to whether or not the CNY should be revaluedPresents major foreign exchange derivatives trading in organized exchanges and the over-the-counter marketplace around the worldReviews what foreign exchange products were involved both before and during the Asian financial crisis, because many of them were used to speculate or hedge against devaluations of the Asian currenciesStudies various CNY-related derivative products and embedded derivative productsExamines the possible impacts of these derivative products on the CNY exchange rate, based on the experiences of other currencies such as the Korean won and the New Taiwan dollar
