Two cosmic ray experiments in the 40's, one of them my Phd thesis

The experiment of Conversi, Pancini and Piccioni performed in Rome at the end of World War 2 showed that the "mesotron", now the muon, is not the "Yukawa particle". My thesis showed that the electron spectrum in mesotron decay is continuous, leading the way to the "universal...

My thesis showed that the electron spectrum in mesotron decay is continuous, leading the way to the "universal" Fermi interaction
