Abstract
Experiments have been performed on the penetrating showers of cosmic radiation accompanied and not accompanied by extensive air showers. In the accompanied showers the penetrating particles are very likely to pre-exist in the air; in the unaccompanied showers they are created in the absorbers surrounding the counters by a nucleonic component of the cosmic radiation.Keywords
