...sampling a native version of Quark's QuarkXPress' 3.3, I found that while such functions as "search" and "replace" sped through large documents, more graphics-intensive operations seemed to be bottle-necked by limitations in video hardware (though the Power Macs do offer unusually flexible built-in video display options...
Franklin will be joined by fellow Fermilab researcher John E. Huth. Both particle physicists are involved in the search for the elusive "top quark." And Eric J. Heller, who examines the relationships between semi-classical and quantum mechanics, will come to the Physics and Astronomy departments in 1994 from the University of Washington...
...fact, the technology has become so popular that most publishing service bureaus use commercial DTP packages to do page layouts and teypesetting. Powerful, professional-caliber programs like QuarkXPress from Quark, Inc., have also made inroads with many nationally renowned publishers: Publications from the New York Times to Rollings STone and The CRimson use DTP for all or parts of their production needs...
SCIENCE: Quest for the Missing Quark...
...quarks emerged from the primordial radiation "around a thousandth of a billionth of a second after the Big Bang," estimates University of Michigan theorist Gordon Kane. But as the early universe expanded and cooled, they vanished. Their fleeting existence left behind a fundamental puzzle that physicists are struggling to solve: What makes some particles so massive while others -- photons, for example -- have no mass at all? Because of its boggling heft, the top quark should help illuminate what mysterious mechanisms -- including perhaps other, still weightier particles -- are responsible for imparting mass, and hence solidity, to the physical world...
