Abstract

Current interest in an absolute measurement of the vertical intensity of muons stimulated the present research. A novel method for the classification of events, and in particular the separation of muons from the soft component, has enabled the determination of a set of relatively precise and reliable measurements. The results so obtained are somewhat lower than the few other recently reported measurements.
