The first experiments at the CERN ISR

Some of the results from the first experiments at the CERN ISR are presented. The data mainly concerns the proton-proton elastic scattering at small angles and production of particles at medium angles

What do the new results from very high energy proton-proton collisions mean?

New results from proton-proton collisions at high energies, which are mainly results from the proton storage rings at CERN are outlined. The interpretation of these results and their contribution to the testing of different particle models are discussed

Particle production at the ISR

The paper is a review of the most recent data on particle production (mostly single particle inclusive production) at the CERN intersecting storage rings. Discussed are total cross-sections, elastic cross- sections, production of pi /sup +/, K/sup +/ and p/sup +/ in the forward direction and in the large angle region, production of particles with large transverse momentum.
