Abstract

The scattering constant K has been determined in G5 and K5 emulsions from multiple scattering measurements on beam tracks of 2.1 GeV/amu Nitrogen and Oxygen ions and, 1.05 GeV/amu Helium ions. By confining measurements in selected regions virtually free from distortion, it has been possible to obtain reliable values of K for cell lengths in the range 1 to 3 mm. The estimation of K at these cell lengths, suggests that it is fairly constant in this region and lies below the theoretical curve. The correlation coefficients for the higher order differences in multiple scattering are shown to be higher than those given in the frame work of Moliere's theory. The trend of the increased values of the correlation coefficient is found to be consistent with the calculations of Dado and Rosendorff's theory.
