Abstract
The flux of near-vertical deuterons at 6 m w.e. underground with momenta in the range (0.84÷1.15) GeV/c has been measured. The flux is (7.6±2.3)·10−10 deuterons cm−2 s−1 sr−1 (MeV/c)−1. This result is of relevance to searches for new heavy particles in the cosmic rays. The flux of medium-energy tritons is also discussed.
