Shouldn't the amount of stored charge be measured in Coulomb rather than in Ampere? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 132.187.47.100 (talk • contribs) 12:21, 17 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Actually no. It's stored current. The electrons move around the storage rings, and so Ampere is the correct terminology. It is also what the BaBar experiment call it. aLii 15:27, 14 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The "Notable Events" section is somewhat out of date. It could be updated with the current luminosity record of just over 1.2x10^34. Also, a couple of the reference links are now dead. Josh Thompson 00:18, 19 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Institutions List

Is there any value to the long list of institutions? It really detracts from the readability of the page, and it will be a pain to keep accurate. At the least, shouldn't it be moved to its own page?

Actually it won't change, BaBar turned off a few months ago, so this article needs an overhaul to the past tense. I agree about the readability, but I don't think it deserves its own page, we just need to put it in a table format. The readability will increase if some things are added: the DIRC, motivation for the experiment, the dataset... I'll tell you what, I'll be working on my thesis in a couple of months. I'll try and give it a great overhaul then, if no one gets to it first.
