Investigation of abnormal absorption of cosmic-ray hadrons in lead calorimeters

A phenomenon of abnormally weak absorption of very high energy cosmic ray hadrons in thick lead blocks is discussed. This phenomenon was first observed in a Tien Shan high altitude experiment to study hadronic cores of extensive air showers (EAS) with a deep ionization calorimeter and encouraged res...
