Distribution of shower particles as obtained in the analysis of a 10 + 13p shower event

Abstract We present here the analysis of an accelerator produced 10 + 13 p shower event observed in nuclear emulsion. The D ULLER ‐W ALKER method is applied to obtain the distribution of secondary shower particles, and the particles having the closest log 10 tan θ L values are taken to form a cluster. This cluster formation is also confirmed by the target diagram method. If this cluster is conceived to be a high spin resonance and the secondary pions to be the decay products of this resonance, then the azimuthal integral distribution curve fits fairly well with our experimental data.
