| Popis: |
A very heavy particle passed through a balloon-borne stack of Cherenkov film, emulsion, and Lexan sheets. In 33 Lexan sheets it produced tracks expected of either a nucleus with Z ranging between 125 and 137 and with beta less than about 0.92 or a magnetic monopole with g = 137e. Its track structure in emulsion indicated it was moving downward with beta equal to 0.5 (plus 0.1 or minus 0.05) and was either a nucleus with Z equal to 80 or a monopole with g = 137e. These facts strongly favor identification of the particle as a magnetic monopole of strength g = 137e and mass greater than 200 times proton mass. |
