The performance of a 15-cm-radius applied-magnetic-field ion diode was investigated on the PBFA II accelerator at a power of 23 TW. The power coupling between the accelerator and diode was measured and compared with numerical simulations that show the effects of the electron flow in the MITL. The power coupled to the cathode of the diode was 18 MW. Measurements of the lithium beam generated from an electric-field-emission LiF anode showed a lithium beam power of 9 TW. The lithium beam was ballistically focused in a gas cell filled with 2 torr argon. The resultant focused power density was ∼1.8 TW/cm2 equivalent on a cylindrical target at the centerline of the diode. The focused power was limited by the 20- to 30-mR divergence of the beam caused by the LiF source used and by virtual cathode instabilities in the anode–cathode gap. The ion mode instability in the virtual cathode was studied extensively by measurement of waves in the ion emission pattern from the anode and of the E-P0 correlation between variations in the beam energy and transverse momentum. The instability Played a dominant role in the limitation of the focused lithium power.

The development of high power ion diodes for inertial confinement fusion is in progress on the PBFA I accelerator. The three main types of magnetically-insulated ion diodes, the Applied-B, Hybrid, and Pinch Reflex diodes, are compared. This paper presents the results from the first series of tests of the Hybrid diode.

This volume includes ten essays dealing with financial and other forms of economic intermediation in Europe, Canada, and the United States since the seventeenth century. Each relates the development of institutions to economic change and describes their evolution over time, as well as discussing several different forms of intermediation, and deals with significant economic and historical issues.

Summary
One of the striking changes accompanying – if not helping to cause – economic development is the dramatic increase in financial transactions among firms and individuals, sometimes directly between borrowers and lenders, sometimes involving third parties (financial intermediaries). Over time these third parties played an increasingly important role. In part it is because the type of intermediaries who appeared early on (brokers, banks, stock markets) grew more numerous; and in part it is because of the introduction of totally new institutions (legal institutions and informal rules of behavior) and totally new organizations (savings and loan associations, investment trusts, and central banks). In most societies this expansion of financial intermediation fueled higher rates of savings and investment, more rapid growth of the capital stock, and a higher rate of economic growth.
The big question here is how financial intermediaries facilitate investment. Lance Davis has long maintained that intermediation acts both on supply, the magnitude of investment funds, and demand, the choice of projects these funds will support. In the early stages of growth, the key issue lies in mobilizing the available savings rather than increasing its amount. Mobilization occurs when savers increase the relative size of their financial holdings. The decision to do so depends on financial institutions that provide savers with information and diminish the risk they bear. Such a task is not easy, for savers appear to be creatures of habit.

Summary
This volume contains papers first presented at a conference, “In Data Veritas: Institutions and Growth in Economic History,” held in honor of Lance Davis at the California Institute of Technology, November 6–8, 1998. In addition to the presenters, also attending, as formal or informal discussants, were Karen Clay, Robert Cull, Price Fishback, Albert Fishlow, Stephen Haber, John James, Shawn Kantor, Zorina Khan, Margaret Levenstein, Rebecca Menes, Clayne Pope, and John Wallis. The Introduction and the Afterword were written by the editors at a later date. We wish to thank Frank Smith from Cambridge University Press and the two anonymous referees for the Press for very helpful suggestions.
We wish to acknowledge the administrative help of Susan G. Davis and the financial help of the Division of the Humanities and Social Sciences, California Institute of Technology, in the conference arrangements. In preparing the final manuscript we were aided by the Department of Economics, University of Rochester; the Department of Economics, UCLA; and the Division of the Humanities and Social Sciences, California Institute of Technology. In the process of publication, we benefited from the editorial work of Michie Shaw of TechBooks, the copyediting of Carol Sirkus, and the preparation of the index by Kathleen Paparchontis. But most of all we gained from the scholarship and enthusiasm of Lance Davis.

Summary
Whether delivering advice to students and colleagues, hiking in the mountains, touring through Europe, or bringing a research program to publication, Lance Edwin Davis has always favored a rapid and sustained pace. And as his many friends can attest, this is the way he has organized and balanced the professional and personal sides of his life. His scholarly writings began with a co-authored book basically completed while in graduate school, continued with two more coauthored books within eighteen months of his Ph. D., and he has seldom paused to rest. Even more impressive, perhaps, is that virtually all of his work has been pioneering and fundamental.
Although Davis has written on diverse subjects, in a sense almost all were of concern to him early in his career: the mobilization and allocation of capital, institutional change, the role of government, and the nature of technical change. The young Davis was also distinguished by a strong belief in the advantages of an economic approach to historical problems and for his proselytizing for cliometrics and the New Economic History. These convictions and commitment are evident in the Davis, Hughes, and McDougall textbook, American Economic History: The Development of a National Economy, and in his editorial work on the multiauthored American Economic Growth: An Economist's History of the United States. From the first, Davis was interested in building a model of economic growth that would be able to both account for the past and be useful in understanding the present.

A total of 276 crossbred pigs were used in three trials to determine if feeding spray-dried animal plasma (SDAP) in simple phase 1 piglet diets with differing soya-bean meal (SBM) levels can influence performance or immunoglobulin G (IgG) levels specific to the antigenic soya proteins, glycinin and β-conglycinin. Pigs were blocked according to initial body weight and equalized across treatments according to gender and ancestry. Blocks of pigs were then randomly assigned to one of three treatments in a completely randomized block design. The dietary treatments were as follows: (1) 10% +: 100 g/kg SBM with 75 g/kg SDAP; (2) 20% +: 200 g/kg SBM with 75 g/ kg SDAP; (3) 20%-: 200 g/kg SBM without SDAP. Pigs were given treatment diets for 14 days, followed by a common diet for the duration of the trials (35 days). Average daily gain (ADG) and gain to food (G: F) ratios were not affected by dietary treatments. Average daily food intake (ADFI), however, was greater for pigs given 10% + as compared with 20% + and 20%- (P < 0.05) during days 0 to 14 post weaning. Addition of SDAP increased ADFI (P < 0.01) and tended to increase ADFI when added to diets containing 200 g/kg of soya-bean meal (P = 0.06). No differences were detected in soya-specific IgG levels during any collection period. These data suggest that SDAP addition to simple phase 1 piglet diets increased ADFI during the first 2 weeks, but did not alter ADG or food efficiency. There was no indication that SDAP addition altered IgG titres against the soya-bean proteins, glycinin and β-conglycinin.

Both psychiatric patients and their relatives benefit from learning about mental illness and how to cope with it, but the specific interests of these consumers remain unclear. To determine specific educational needs and to compare the needs of different consumers, a questionnaire survey was conducted with a sample of patients with schizophrenia and affective disorder and their relatives. Both patients and relatives reported strong interest in learning more about psychiatric illness and strategies for coping with common problems, but patients with schizophrenia were less interested than patients with affective disorder and both sets of relatives. Discriminant analyses revealed that needs differed as a function of patient diagnosis, patient/relative status, and relatives' membership of a self-help and advocacy organisation. Consumers of mental health services are capable of specifying their own educational needs, and educational programmes should be tailored to meet these.
