Abstract
The article gives constructions of disjoint 5βdesigns obtained from permutation groups and extremal selfβdual codes. Several new simple 5βdesigns are found with parameters that were left open in the table of 5βdesigns given in (G. B. Khosrovshahi and R. Laue, tβDesigns with tβ©Ύ3, in βHandbook of Combinatorial Designsβ, 2nd edn, C. J. Colbourn and J. H. Dinitz (Editors), Chapman & Hall/CRC, Boca Raton, FL, 2007, pp. 79β101), namely, 5β(v, k, Ξ») designs with (v, k, Ξ»)=(18, 8, 2__m__) (m=6, 9), (19, 9, 7__m__) (m=6, 9), (24, 9, 6__m__) (m=3, 4, 5), (25, 9, 30), (25, 10, 24__m__) (m=4, 5), (26, 10, 126), (30, 12, 440), (32, 6, 3__m__) (m=2, 3, 4), (33, 7, 84), and (36, 12, 45__n__) for 2β©½nβ©½17. These results imply that a simple 5β(v, k, Ξ») design with (v, k)=(24, 9), (25, 9), (26, 10), (32, 6), or (33, 7) exists for all admissible values of Ξ». Β© 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

It is shown that the lifted Golay code over Z4 contains several 5-designs. In particular, a 5-(24, 12, 1584) design and a 5-(24, 12, 1632) design are constructed for the first time.
