Status of the ATF extraction line laser-wire
A new laser-wire is being installed in the extraction line of the ATF at KEK. This device aims at demonstrating that laser-wires can be used to measure micrometre scale beam size.

BCVEGPY: An Event Generator for Hadronic Production of the B_c Meson
We have written a Fortran programme BCVEGPY, which is an event generator for the hadronic production of the $B_c$ meson through the dominant hard subprocess $gg\to B_c(B_c^*) +b+\bar{c}$. To achieve a compact programme, we have written the amplitude of the subprocess with the particle helicity technique and made it as symmetric as possible, by decomposing the gluon self couplings and then applying the symmetries. To check the programme, various cross sections of the subprocess have been computed numerically and compared with those in the literature. BCVEGPY is written in a PYTHIA-compatible format, thus it is easy to implement in PYTHIA.
