Heavy primary interactions in water loaded emulsions

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento (1955-1965)

Summary

Water loaded emulsions have been used to study cut-off energy, spectrum and flux of primary particles at geomagnetic latitude and longitude 47 ℴS, 135 ℴW. Results agree with Störmer cut-off energy for the latitude. Most interactions in the water loaded emulsions were shown to occur in light nuclei.

Riassunto

Per studiare il cut-off, lo spettro energetico e il flusso delle particelle primarie alla latitudine e longitudine geomagnetica 47° S e 135° W si sono usate emulsioni imbibite d’acqua. I risultati si accordano con l’energia di cut-off di Störmer per la latitudine. Si dimostra che la maggior parte delle interazioni nelle emulsioni imbibite d’acqua avvengono nei nuclei leggeri.
