A study of the production of γ-rays in high-energy nuclear interactions

II.—A study of individual high-energy interactions in graphite

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento A (1965-1970)

Summary

An analysis is given of 46 nuclear interactions occurring in graphite in each of which at least 1300 GeV was radiated as γ-rays. In each event the energies and relative angles of all γ-rays within certain fiducial limits were measured. Data are presented concerning the multiplicity of γ-rays and their energy and transverse-momenta distributions.

Riassunto

Si espone un'analisi di 46 interazioni nucleari avvenute in grafite in ciascuna delle quali almeno 1300 GeV vennero irradiati come raggi γ. In ciascun evento si sono misurate le energie e gli angoli relativi di tutti i raggi γ compresi entro certi limiti fiduciali. Si presentano i dati relativi alla molteplicità dei raggi γ e le loro distribuzioni di energia e di impulsi trasversali.
