Cosmic Ray Series

Round photographic plates.

Caption;-
A pair of tracks, apparently arising simultaneously, from a common point, outside the field of view. The particles responsible for these tracks, have been ejected, when a cosmic ray was absorbed. The thinner track is that of a 120 MeV electron. The more dense track is that of a 130 MeV proton. This photograph was taken with a field of 17,000 oersteds.
