The reaction $~{12}{\rm C}(\nu_\mu,\mu~-) {\rm X}$ has been measured near threshold using a $\pi ~+$ decay-in-flight $\nu_\mu$ beam from the Los Alamos Meson Physics Facility and a massive liquid scintillator neutrino detector (LSND). In the energy region $123.7 < {\rm E}_\nu < 280$ MeV, the measured spectral shape is consistent with that expected from the Fermi Gas Model. However, the measured flux--averaged inclusive cross section ($(8.3 \pm 0.7 {\rm stat.} \pm 1.6 {\rm syst.}) \times 10~{-40} {\rm cm}~2$) is more than a factor of 2 lower than that predicted by the Fermi Gas Model and by a recent random phase approximation calculation.

Experiments to determine the characteristics of electromagnetic dissociation (ED) has been extended to high projectile charge and ultrarelativistic energies using La139 and O16 projectiles on Au197 targets. The gross features are reproduced in a Weizsäcker-Williams calculation but significant systematic deviations appear. The results are used as a guide in extending the calculations to the regime of energies and projectiles expected for planned heavy-ion colliders where Ed effects should comprise a major fraction of the total cross section.
