BES Recent Results and Future Plans

We report the preliminary R values for all the 85 energy points scanned in the energy region of 2-5 GeV with the upgraded Beijing Spectrometer (BESII) at Beijing Electron Positron Collider (BEPC). Preliminary results from the J/psi data collected with both BESI and BESII are presented. Measurements of the branching fraction of the psi(2S) decays and the psi(2S) resonance parameters are reported. The future plans, i.e. significantly upgrade the machine and detector are also discussed.Comment: Talk given at APPAC2000, 6 pages, 8 figure

Kaons - Recent Results and Future Plans

Recent results and future plans of kaon physics are reviewed. Topics include CP violation, rare decays, light neutral-boson search, lepton flavor universality, and CPT and QM tests.Comment: 10 pages, 5 figures, to appear in the Proceedings of LEPTON PHOTON 2009, Hamburg, Germany, 17-22 August 200

COMPASS Calorimetry in view of future plans

The COMPASS experiment at the CERN SPS is dedicated to hadron physics with a broad research programme, including the study of the nucleon spin structure using muons as a probe and a variety of issues in meson spectroscopy using hadron beams. The two stage fixed target spectrometer with electromagnetic (em) and hadronic calorimetry in both stages provides photon detection in a wide angular range. As discussed in this paper, the COMPASS em calorimetry plays a crucial r\^{o}le for the Hadron programme started in 2008 as well as for the planned COMPASS future programme of measuring GPDs via exclusive DVCS photons. We present the photon detection coverage foreseen, and first, preliminary results characterising the present performances of both existing COMPASS electromagnetic calorimeters, based on test beam data taken at CERN T9 facility end of 2007

Muon Collider Overview: Progress and Future Plans

Besides continued work on the parameters of a 3-4 and 0.5 TeV CoM collider, many studies are now concentrating on a machine near 100 GeV that could be a factory for the s-channel production of Higgs particles. We mention the research on the various components in such muon colliders, starting from the proton accelerator needed to generate pions from a heavy-Z target and proceeding through the phase rotation and decay channel, muon cooling, acceleration, storage in a ring and the collider detector. We also mention theoretical and experimental R&D plans for the next several years that should lead to a better understanding of the design and feasibility issues for all of the components. This note is a summary of a report updating the progress on the R&D since the Feasibility Study of Muon Colliders presented at the Workshop Snowmass'96.Comment: 3 pages, 2 figures, LaTex EPAC format; to be published Proceedings of the EPAC98 Conference, Stockholm, Sweden, June 1998.

Transverse Spin: HERMES Results and Future Plans

Results from the HERMES experiment are presented on single-spin asymmetries in semi-inclusive hadron production from longitudinally polarized targets. The data are compared with a number of theoretical calculations which relate the azimuthal dependence of the asymmetries to the transversity structure function h_1(x).Comment: 9 pages, 4 figures requiring 9 EPS files, contribution to the European Workshop On The QCD Structure Of The Nucleon (QCD-N'02), to be published in Nucl.
