Abstract :
The object of the instrumentation is to observe the interaction of high energy protons with various nuclei and to study the characteristics of the short-lived particles which are produced. The tracks of charged particles can be directly observed in photographic film, in cloud and bubble chambers and in spark chambers. Alternatively, a number of radiation detectors may be arranged to give a signal orly when a selected type of event takes place.
