We respectfully submit these proceedings of the 1982 Orbis
Scientiae for your reading enjoyment. As always, the success of the
conference was due to the hard work and wisdom of the moderators
and dissertators. This year, in addition to the excellent overview
of QCD and GUT, and the customary reports of the latest progress in
theoretical and experimental particle physics, there have been
discussions of new developments in astrophysics and especially of
field theory and composite models. We wish also to note here that
the 1981 Orbis paper by Stephen S. Pinsky on "Death of Fractional
Topological Charge" was actually co-authored by William F. Palmer
of Ohio State University, whose name was inadvertently omitted from
the authorship, due to a series of misunderstandings. As in the
past, this Orbis Scientiae 1982 was supported on a small scale by
the Department of Energy, and this year as well by the National
Science Foundation, on the same scale. We would like to thank Mrs.
Helga S. Billings for her excellent typing for the n-th time, where
n is a large number. This series of proceedings is also enhanced by
Linda Scott's editorial help which includes improvements in the
presentation of some of the papers.
