Abstract

A technique for measuring particle masses using nuclear emulsion as a vertex detector has been developed and tested. The results of the calibration measurements on pion, proton, and deuteron beams with the given momentum are presented. The experimental conditions, under which the accuracy in measuring the particle masses is 15–20%, are described.
