He had suggested that neutrino interactions could create short-lived ( perhaps as low as 10 " 14 s ) particles that could be detected with the use of nuclear emulsion.

One such experiment was being carried out on the Bevalac at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory using Argon 40 accelerated to 1.8 GeV and then smashed into a copper target backed with a nuclear emulsion detector.

A pioneer in the use of nuclear emulsions for cosmic ray and accelerator research, Friedlander founded and headed the Cosmic Rays Laboratory at the Institute for Atomic Physics in Bucharest, Romania, before emigrating to the United States in 1975.

On May 1, 1974, KMS Fusion carried out the world's first successful laser-induced fusion in a deuterium-tritium pellet, the evidence for which was provided by neutron-sensitive nuclear emulsion detectors developed by Hofstadter.

"' Muography "'is an imaging technique that produces a projectional image of a target volume by recording elementary particles, called muons, either electronically or chemically with materials that are sensitive to charged particles such as nuclear emulsions.

In 1937, Marietta Blau and Hertha Wambacher discovered nuclear " disintegration stars " due to spallation in nuclear emulsions that had been exposed to cosmic radiation at a height of 2, 300 metres ( H " 7, 500 feet ) above sea level.

In 1948, observations with nuclear emulsions carried by balloons to near the top of the atmosphere showed that approximately 10 % of the primaries are helium nuclei ( alpha particles ) and 1 % are heavier nuclei of the elements such as carbon, iron, and lead.

He became also the chairman of the Department of fireballs, a phenomenon induced by naturally occurring high-energy collisions, and which was detected by means of special lead-chamber nuclear emulsion plates invented by him, and placed at the Chacaltaya peak of the Bolivian Andes.

Other than the result itself, DONUT also allowed validation of new techniques for high energy neutrino detection, notably the " Emulsion Cloud Chamber ", in which nuclear emulsion sheets are interspersed with layers of iron, leading to an increase in the number of interactions.

In 1959, Ahmad obtained D . Sc . in Nuclear physics after submitting his doctoral works on concepts on advancing on particle physics . and covered a wide range of research in the study of elementary particles by using the deployment of special fine grain nuclear emulsion ( Ag-Br ).
