Search for coplanar emission of secondaries in nuclear interactions at energy E_0 > 1013 eV in RUNJOB experiment data
Abstract
The phenomenon of coplanar emission (alignment) was discovered in Pamir emulsion experiment at E0 > 1016 eV. In contrast to mountain experiments, where repeated cascade interactions distort the picture of a primary interaction, the data of joint Russia-Japan balloon experiment RUNJOB have some advantages. They enable to analyse directly the secondaries of a single nuclear interaction, to study the correlation of alignment effect with primary type, to examine the probability of coplanar emission at lower energies.
