A Possible Explanation of the Frequency Distribution of Sizes of Hoffmann Stosse The cloud chamber photographs of Blackett and Occhi- alini, Anderson, and Locher' have brought to light the suggestion that Hoffmann Stdsse may not originate in a single atom, but may arise from several atoms as the result of a primary cosmic ray acting through intermediaries. Each of these observers finds groups of ray tracks, appa- rently all formed simultaneously. These tracks are possibly produced by the particles which give rise to the bursts of ions observed in a pressure chamber. However, these tracks do not diverge from a common point, but seem, in many cases, to be formed in several groups, each group of tracks diverging from a separate point. The existence of these multiple centers has been attributed by Locher' to
