Abstract :
This paper contains a description of a computer-operated system for studying the development of electromagnetic showers initiated by high-energy electrons in various materials. Sample results are shown for a shower produced by a beam of 900-MeV electrons incident on a block of copper. The research program in which the system will be utilized is briefly described.
