Popis: In a study of collisions of 27.5 GeV/{ital c} protons in liquid hydrogen we have observed enhanced production of oppositely charged hadron pairs when the relative velocity of the two hadrons in the pair rest frame approaches {alpha}{ital c}. The scale and velocity dependence of the enhancement agree well with the effect of the attractive Coulomb interaction as described by the Gamow factor.
