Detailed analysis and discussion of two narrow showers of pairs of charged particles

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento (1955-1965)

Summary

Detailed experimental data on two events consisting of a narrow shower of pairs of charged particles are reported. An analysis of the common features of the events points out some difficulties in the explanation of the phenomenon as an ordinary cascade shower. Other possible interpretations are suggested.

Riassunto

Si descrivono dettagliatamente due casi di sciami di coppie di particelle cariche, e si danno i risultati delle misure sperimentali. Una analisi delle caratteristiche comuni ai due eventi rende difficile la loro interpretazione come normali cascate elettrofotoniche. Si suggeriscono altre possibili interpretazioni.
