The Detection of Mesic X-rays with Pressurized Proportional Counters using Cosmic Ray -Mesons stopped in Carbon

Abstract
The advantages of proportional counters over scintillation counters in the study of mesic x-rays from light elements are pointed out. A preliminary investigation is described in which mesic x-rays from carbon are detected with proportional counters. Aluminium counters filled to a pressure of seven atmospheres of xenon were used.
