Scope and content
Heisenberg comments on Bhabha's and Heitler's paper which leads to agreement with Heisenberg's data about cross-section for genuine showers. There is a difference between Bhabha's and Heisenberg's conception regarding cosmic radiation at great depths. He writes on an experiment deciding between both conceptions: measurement of electron energies at great depths.
