What, specifically, is going on in this image of particle tracks from the Big European Bubble Chamber?
Post Body
So, I'm trying to figure out the details of what's going on in this image: http://www.interactions.org/cms/?pid=2100&image_no=CE0057 I can find that the image is from the Big European Bubble Chamber, courtesy of CERN, but I can't figure out what is actually going on in this particular case. I know that, to my best understanding, we're looking at a series of particles moving dependant on their charges/masses/velocities, but I'm curious as to what this particular decay is. This particular image is fairly common, but I can't find anything describing what decays are actually going on in this.
