techniques, and raises new issues of physical interpretation as
well as possibilities for deepening the theory. (3) Barut
contributes a comprehensive review of his own ambitious program in
electron theory and quantum electrodynamics. Barut's work is rich
with ingenious ideas, and the interest it provokes among other
theorists can be seen in the cri tique by Grandy. Cooperstock takes
a much different approach to nonlinear field-electron coupling
which leads him to conclusions about the size of the electron. (4)
Capri and Bandrauk work within the standard framework of quantum
electrodynamics. Bandrauk presents a valuable review of his
theoretical approach to the striking new photoelectric phenomena in
high intensity laser experiments. (5) Jung proposes a theory to
merge the ideas of free-free transitions and of scattering chaos,
which is becoming increasingly important in the theoretical
analysis of nonlinear optical phenomena. For the last half century
the properties of electrons have been probed primarily by
scattering experiments at ever higher energies. Recently, however,
two powerful new experimental techniques have emerged capable of
giving alternative experimental views of the electron. We refer to
(1) the confinement of single electrons for long term study, and
(2) the interaction of electrons with high intensity laser fields.
Articles by outstanding practitioners of both techniques are
included in Part II of these Proceedings. The precision experiments
on trapped electrons by the Washington group quoted above have
already led to a Nobel prize for the most accurate measurements of
the electron magnetic moment.
