Science Division contributors should also list the names and affiliations of all people presently associated with their experiment and the present status of the experiment. The information will be used to update Appendix D and Appendix E.

Please E-mail your contribution to annrep@triumf.ca, or send a message giving details of where the unprotected files can be accessed. A hardcopy of your contribution should also be sent to the Publications Office for comparison with the electronic version.
