$A survey was made at Climax, Colorado (elevation 3510 meters) of the particles associated with nuclear explosions, of stars, which were capable of emerging from the thin-walled ionization chamber in which the stars were recorded, and of penetrating various thicknesses of lead absorber. The experiment was so designed as to distinguish between electrons and penetrating particles. It was found that in a small fraction of the nuclear events (1 to 2 percent) there were associated electrons. In some of these events there were pairs of associated rays capable of penetrating 8 inches of lead placed below the chamber. The absorption in lead was found to be exponential with a mean free path of 107±30 g/ cm 2 .$
