Abstract
The absolute momentum spectrum of muons at a depth of 7.2 kg cm-2 of sandstone rock has been measured in the range 2 to 200 GeV/c. The spectrometer and the method of analysis are described in detail. The production spectrum deduced from our data, making suitable assumptions about momentum loss, agrees well with that obtained from their sea level spectrum by Pineet al., as regards both the absolute rate and shape of the spectrum. The use of Geiger counter trays at five levels enables us to analyse most multiple events.
