Abstract
IN a recent paper before the Royal Society (as reported in NATURE, July 7, p. 26), C. T. R. Wilson announced that in his cloud expansion pictures of secondary -rays produced by X-rays shorter than 0.5 Å, tracks of very short range appear. These electrons, he says, “are ejected nearly along the direction of the primary X-rays”.
