The use of the neon flash-tube for the precise location of particle trajectories

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento (1955-1965)

Summary

The passage of fast cosmic ray particles through an array of neonflash-tubes has been studied and the accuracy of location of the particle trajectories has been found to be as high as in conventional cloud chambers.

Riassunto

È stato studiato il passaggio di radiazione cosmica velooe attraverso un rivelatore costruito con scintillatori al neon e l’esattezza dell’individuazione delle traiettorie delle particelle è risultpata altrettanto buona di quella permessa dalle camere a nebbia convenzionali.
