ON THE PRODUCTION OF THE ELECTRON-PHOTON COMPONENT IN THE INTERACTION OF COSMIC-RAY PARTICLES OF ENERGIES GREATER THAN 10$sup 11$ ev WITH BERYLLIUM NUCLEI

Journal Article · · Soviet Phys. JETP
OSTI ID:4323750
Four events of electron-nuclear showers produced by cosmic-ray particles of energy exceeding 10/sup 11/ ev interacting with beryllium nuclei in a cloud chamber are discussed. The energy transferred to pi /sup o/ mesons in the interactions is determned. Large fluctuations in the pi /sup o/ meson energy were observed. One of the photographs is an example of an interaction in which pi /sup o/ mesons are apparently not generated. (auth)
