This action would provide funds for the Cornell Electron Storage Ring Facility: operation of the storage ring, support services for external users and collaborators, support of the Cornell CLEO experimental group and research and development program for application of superconducting technology to RF particle accelerating systems. Also provided are funds for the CESR/CLEO capital improvement program begun in FY 1985. CESR is operated by the Floyd R. Newman Laboratory of Nuclear Studies at Cornell University. The North region is occupied at present by the CUSB collaboration (Columbia University and the State University at Stony Brook). The Columbia-Stony Brook collaborators are continuing their work with a recently improved detector augmented by bismuth germinate. The focus of their work has been the study of photons and leptons. In the South region a large magnetic detector, CLEO, is now being upgraded to have the best particle tracking and photon detection possible with current techniques. Most of what is known about the b-quark has been learned with these detectors at CESR.

这一行动将为康奈尔电子存储环设施提供资金：存储环的运行、为外部用户和合作者提供支持服务、支持康奈尔大学 CLEO 实验组以及将超导技术应用于射频粒子加速系统的研发计划。 还为 1985 财年开始的 CESR/CLEO 资本改善计划提供资金。CESR 由康奈尔大学弗洛伊德·纽曼核研究实验室运营。 北部地区目前由 CUSB 合作机构（哥伦比亚大学和石溪州立大学）占据。 哥伦比亚-石溪分校的合作者正在继续他们的工作，使用最近改进的由发芽铋增强的探测器。 他们的工作重点是光子和轻子的研究。 在南部地区，大型磁探测器 CLEO 正在升级，以利用当前技术实现最佳的粒子跟踪和光子探测。 关于 b 夸克的大部分知识都是通过 CESR 的这些探测器了解到的。
