Abstract

The possibility that certain anomalous electron tracks in a cloud chamber may be due to decay of a low mass neutral particle has been examined, and it is concluded that such tracks are not caused by decay electrons. This conclusion is necessary because of the failure of observe such tracks in 5000 pictures when hydrogen gas was used in the cloud chamber instead of air.
