Bubble Chamber


Historic bubble chamber photograph from the Brookhaven National Laboratory. A Bev proton from the Cosmotron collides with a proton in the liquid hydrogen bubble chamber. Six charged prongs emerge from the interaction, including four pi mesons, two of which decay by pi to åµ-e decay. An unrelated beam track appears to pass through the vertex of this event.
