This volume contains the greater part of the papers submitted to
the High Energy Physics portion of the 1983 Orbis Scientiae, then
dedicated to the eightieth year of Professor P. A. M. Dirac. Before
the vol, ume could be published, Professor Dirac passed away on
October 20, 1984, thereby changing the dedication of this volume,
and its companion, on Information Processing in Biology, to his
everlasting memory. Since 1969, Professor Dirac had given the
opening address at each of these conferences. He was unable to
prepare a manuscript of his last paper in 1983. His impact on
science already has been enormous. The consequences of his thought
and work for future developments are incalculable. Regrettably,
Professor Dirac's last appearance at this series of conferences,
begun in 1964 as the Coral Gables Conference on Symmetry Principles
at High Energy, coincided with the twentieth, and the last of
these. The work and expense involved in organizing them and
preparing the proceedings have corne to far exceed the physical
capabilities and the support received by the Center for Theoretical
Studies for this program. The delayed appearance of these
proceedings, for which the editors humbly apologize, is a
manifestation of the inadequate support. On the other hand, the
organizers and editors thank the many distinguished participants
who, over the years, made these meetings exciting and productive
arenas for the dissemination of ideas in high energy physics and
related fields.
