Abstract
The number of ions produced by a neutral particle of small mass with a magnetic moment equal to n Bohr magnetons has been calculated (I–III) and found to be 103n2 per km. path in air at N.T.P., being practically independent of the mass and energy of the particle (IV). A comparatively large fraction of the secondary electrons produced have high energy and may therefore be counted if they are produced in the wall of the Geiger counter instead of in the counter itself. This fact should facilitate the experimental detection of the ionization considerably (V).
