北京正负电子对撞机方案的初步提出与确立

从1957年到1977年,中国高能物理加速器的设计方案历经了“六上六下”的波折.1977年11月第7次上马的高能质子加速器工程——“八七工程”在1980年底遭遇下马.在以张文裕为首的高能物理学家们的努力争取之下,经邓小平批准,保留和利用“八七工程”预制研究的余款,经过一番分外曲折的探寻,借助中美高能物理合作的有利条件,正确采纳李政道、潘诺夫斯基等人关于建造正负电子对撞机的建议方案,几经论证最终选定了中国高能加速器的建设方案——正负电子对撞机,奠定了中国高能物理在世界高能物理研究领域占据一席之地的基础.

The Proposal and Decision to Build the Beijing Electric Positron Collider

Between 1975 and 1977,the construction of a Chinese high-energy accelerator was planned and then cancelled six times. The 7th high energy accelerator project,the so called 87 Pro- ject,was suspended at the end of 1980. Through the efforts of Zhang Wenyu and other high-energy physicists,Deng Xiaoping approved that the remaining money of the Eighty-seven Project should be used for the development of high-energy physics. After tortuous discussion,with the help of coopera- tion between China and the U. S. and o...
