Oral History Interviews: Series 3. Subcontracting. LeCroy Corporation. 1991.

Interviews were conducted to learn about the commercial production of experimental equipment at one of the most important companies in this area, the LeCroy Corporation. Topics include the history of LeCroy Corporation, how LeCroy learned about and met the needs of high-energy physicists, how the HEP market for LeCroy has changed over the past 25 years, LeCroy's competition with in-house groups, the role of physicists at LeCroy, and LeCroy's expansion into markets other than high-energy physics. Interviews were conducted with: Michael Bedesem, Walter LeCroy, and Alan Michalowski in one joint interview, and separate interviews with Michael Bedesem, Werner Farr, Walter LeCroy, and Alan Michalowski.

A documentation research project to study the complex issues facing the historical documentation of multi-institutional collaborations in physics and allied sciences. "Probes" are in-depth studies of three highly significant collaborations: the discoveries of the psi at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (SLAC), the upsilon experiments at Fermilab, and the CLEO experiment and the origins of the Cornell Electron Storage Ring at Cornell University. The psi discovery (SLAC-SP-017) was a collabo...
