Abstracts
The author recently described an experiment which enabled him to detect the disintegration electrons emitted by mesotrons at the end of their range.
This is a preliminary report of new results obtained with an improved arrangement which was designed to measure a decay curve of mesotrons at rest. (Extracted from introductory part of the paper.).
