The muon charge ratio at sea level in the low momentum region
Abstract
The charge ratio in the momentum region 0.3-26 GeV/c has been determined at two different geomagnetic latitudes with a small spark chamber spectrograph. Both measurements show a maximum in the region around 3 GeV/c. The value of the charge ratio at the maximum amounts to 1.65. There is a hint of this behaviour from theoretical calculations.
