Abstract
The burst-size spectrum due to cosmic rays of energy approximately 1 TeV interacting in a lead target at sea level has been measured. The zenith angle distribution of the particles initiating the bursts has also been determined. The results are compared with predicted spectra based on theoretical calculations. No unusual features are observed and it appears that the observed data could be explained in terms of hadronic and muonic fluxes at sea level. However, the measured hadronic contribution is higher than that predicted by the calculations.
