Stanford Computation Research Group Technical Memos (CGTMs)

Copies of Stanford University Computation Research Group Technical Memos (CGTMs) held by the SLAC Archives and History Office have been scanned and are now available online. Follow links in the numeric list below to the scanned copies. Please note that the quality of some of the PDF files is poor because the original documents are themselves blurred or indistinct. Entries without links are for known publications for which no hard copy has yet been located. (Not all Computation Group publications were published in this Technical Memo series: search the SLACInspireBeta directory under author name(s) for further Computation Group publications.)

Note: Most links on this page open pdf files, which require the free Acrobat Reader.
