...addition, called a single-pass collider, will create two beams of 50 billion electron volts that collide with a force of 100 billion volts. The next largest facilities are in Hamburg, West Germany, and produce about 30 billion electron volts each...

...change of strategy had been in the works since Sept. 29. On that date, Volcker and Treasury Secretary Miller met with their West German counterparts and Chancellor Helmut Schmidt in Hamburg as part of a series of continuing huddles that grew out of the now faltering dollar-rescue package of November 1978. The West Germans told the new Fed chief that any sort of Son of Rescue plan would now be simply unacceptable. If Washington wanted anything more than disdainful sympathy for its economic malaise, the Germans indicated, it would have to stage a sustained assault on inflation itself...
...street prices. Even though American soldiers were involved, U.S. military personnel have long ceased to be the main source of West Germany's narcotics problem. Trafficking and addiction among West Germans have been rising at alarming rates over the past two years, especially in West Berlin, Hamburg, Frankfurt and other large cities. Federal statistics indicate 43,000 known drug addicts in the country. But police estimate the real figure is twice that number. The vast majority are young Germans between the ages...
...catch quarks in that playful activity, four separate teams of experimenters-involving 300 scientists from eight countries, including the U.S.-turned to West Germany's new PETRA colliding beam accelerator in Hamburg. The powerful machine accelerates electrons to energies of 15 billion electron volts and sends them barreling head-on into their antimatter opposites, particles called positrons, coming at high speed from the opposite direction. In the past, when such experiments have been tried with other accelerators operating at lower energies, the debris from the electron-positron collisions has consisted of only two "jets," or streams, of hadrons...
