Kim's analysis of the precision obtainable in momentum measurements from the curvature of the tracks in an emulsion placed in a pulsed magnetic field is furthered taking into account the distortion of the plates. Calculations show that one cannot hope to reach a decisive improvement from a pulsed magnetic field, if the distontion of the plates is not reduced somewhat below present-day values. The use of thicker emulsions is suggested as a possible way of improving the situation. (auth)
