Abstract
The size-frequency distribution of cosmic-ray stars produced in photographic emulsions exposed at 95,000-feet altitude and the energies associated with the non-relativistic prongs of these stars have been determined. A distribution function for the excitation energy of stars with more than 8 prongs is derived.Keywords
