MANZANEDA O., Alejandro; CALLE GARCIA, Carla A. and MONASTERIOS M., Manuel. Construction of a diffusion cloud chamber for the identification of different cosmic particles. Revista Boliviana de Física [online]. 2018, vol.32, n.32, pp.25-28. ISSN 1562-3823.
ABSTRACT In this work we present the cosmic particles frames observed in the diffusion cloud chamber that we built for the outreach fair "Física a Puertas Abiertas" of the Department of Physics at "Universidad Mayor de San Andres". The aim of the experiment was to show the existen ce of cosmic particles that are constantly reaching the Earth and identify them based on their tracks left in the detector. We identified the traces of muons, high and low energy /3 particles, a particles and phenomena such as pair production and muon decay.
