Production of Penetrating Particles in Extensive Air Showers

The present paper contains an analysis of the experimental material presented in two previous communications (Broadbent & Jánossy 1947a,b, referred to as I and II) and also the important papers of Cocconi, Loverdo & Tongiorgi (1943, 1944, 1946a,b), and those of Daudin (1942, 1943). Use is al...

Description
Summary:The present paper contains an analysis of the experimental material presented in two previous communications (Broadbent & Jánossy 1947a,b, referred to as I and II) and also the important papers of Cocconi, Loverdo & Tongiorgi (1943, 1944, 1946a,b), and those of Daudin (1942, 1943). Use is also made of unpublished experimental material obtained by Miss B. Choudhuri.
