Abstract
A SERIES of cloud-chamber measurements of the momentum spectrum of mesons at sea-level has been made, extending the spectrum to the important low-momentum region which is modified by meson decay. A short reference to this work, which was completed in the summer of 1939, was given by Rossi1.
