Kaon-proton collisions. Particle tracks showing negative kaons (parallel lines) passing from left to right through a bubble chamber full of hydrogen liquid. Several collisions with hydrogen nuclei (protons) are shown here,with the new particles produced by the collisions showing as slightly curving tracks. The tight clockwise-spiralling tracks are a side-show produced by electrons which lose their energy rapidly,causing them to spiral in smaller circles. This photograph was taken in the CERN 2-metre hydrogen bubble chamber. The region shown here is about 100 centimetres tall | |
