ABSTRACT The author@ carried out *xperlaoate for the doteralaation of
the shape of the energy spoetrun of myous at three different
distanges from the axis of a broad atmospheric shower In the
Pamir (3860 a sea level) In the fall of 1954. Besides, they
compared the speatra of myons In showers with different primary,
energies. The oaorgy of the myoas was detoralaod from their absorp-
tion In lead and In the ground. The Central scheme of the eik-
perimental order and the section of the pit dug Into the ground
are shown in form of drawings. The control system consisted of
three groups of GEIG&R-ALLER counters which sere located above
the deteatore of the penetrating partlsl*s as well as at a
distance of 100 and 300 a from then. Above the detectors of the
penetrating particles nany hodoseopie counters for the in-

ABSTRAM A large number of counting tube@ which were established at dif-
ferent distance* from one an4ther (of up to 1000 a) in an alti-
tude of 3860 a, were used to measure the current density of all
charged partial** of the shower. The counters were screened by
neans of a thin Al-foil and by wood.
From the formula r(r) - lin n the current density of the particles
at the distance r from the axis of the shower can be computed,
where n denotes tho number of counting tubes which bad responded,
=- the total number of counting tub*@, and 6,the surface of a
counting tube. ',Lhres groups-of broad showers with accurately
determinable axis were Investigated. lihe fir5t group comprised
such showers as contained fron 5.104 to 1.10 chirged particles.

ABSTRACT: In autumn 1955 the authors investif;ated at an altitude of
3860 m above sea level nuclear-active particles of high
enercy (E > 1011 eY). The apparatus used for thece me-
asurements consisted of 6 impulse-ionization chambers uhich
were mounted below a lead layer of variable thickness. The
ionization chambers consisted of brass cylinders. An
electronic device made possible the reCietration of the
intensity of the ionization Impulse In each of the 6 chambers.
BesIde the Ionization chambers there was a aysten of 972
hodoecopic counters with a total surface of ~ 10 m2.

a function of their Intensity(below different filters) it
shown In a dlat;raz. The inteCral spectra of the bursts with
N > 2000 relativistic particles can be expressed by an
exponential law:
V ( > 11) - A/Y
Here the exponent 1-' is the sare with all three spectra
(20, 50 &ad 80 cm thick lead layers)l It is on the average
7 - 1,5 1 0,16. The absolute frequencies of the ionization
bursts belon 20 cm and 50 cm of lead coincide within the
range of error, limits. The rarWe for the absor-Mon of the
nuclear active component in air Is -o120 g.cm-~. This value
is obtained in different ways. In the analysis of the
correlation of Ionization burste with atmospheric showers
the cases observed were divided into two groups:
I.- Ionization bursts which are accompanied by an atmospheric
shower of small density. 2.- Ionization bursts which are
accompanied by a broad atmos-,heric shower of more than 103

of low energy near the axis as well as with the fact that in
the production of the electron-photon component of the shower
nuclear-aotlys partial@@ with an energy of from 1010-1012 ey
play a part. The spectrum of the olootron-photon component in
extensive atmospheric showers caused by primary particles with

the observational altitude. This cau be explained by the
equilibrium of the elaotronph6ton component of extensive
atmospheric showers with nuclear-active particles of high energy
an well an by the predominant registration of extensive
atmospheric showers (which for-.ed at a certain absolute
altitude above the pbservation Tevel in the depth of the

ABSTRACT: As a supplement of their previous paper (I!ef 1) the authors
investigated (at an altituee a&' 3660 m) the %bove mentionei
energy spectrum. The nuclear-actLvo particles were separated
from the total particle flow In the extensive air shower ac-
cording to the generation.of an elrctron nuclear shower In
lead plates which were located within a great rectanCular
aloud chnbor. The total thickness of the lead plates was
MOO g/cm . A criterion to given for the separation of the
cases with electron-nuclear showers from the cases with elec-

2 different ways. In the first one there wLs no absorber 2

of the observed number of the nuclear-active particles with

ABSTRAM In autumn 1955 the energetic characteristics of extensive at-
mospheric showers were investigated at an altitude of 3860 m
above the sea level. 71he lay-out of the experimental
equipment is illustrated in a diagram. Extensive atmospheric
showers caused by primary p&rticlee with an energy of from
2.10 13- 10 16 eV were separated by fourfold discharges in two
groups of counters (wilh a mutual distance of two meters).
A number of about 4.10 extensive atmospheric showers were
recorded. A great number of counters was employed in these

naolear-active particles was found to be given by Z a 2.3-10SN1.04*v which
holds for the range 10 114vo.'COZ195-1014ev. In this energy range, the nuclear
