The barometer coefficient and the mu-meson production spectrum.

The barometer coefficient and the mu-meson production spectrum.

In the following account, we are interested in what happens to the mu-meson component of cosmic radiation in the atmosphere. Two main effects are to be distinguished. The first is the gradual absorption of the momentum of a meson, by collision with charged particles in the air, as the meson descends...
