Abstract: | The cascade theory of cosmic rays is investigated from a new point of view; we deal with the number of particles produced in a certain thickness of matter, the energy of each particle being greater than E at the point of its production. This new approach leads to an elegant asymptotic theory for large thicknesses and it is better adapted to the interpretation of experiments in nuclear emulsions. |
