I was looking for more details about this picture:

collider.jpg


I think I see a few places where electron/positron pairs arise but can't be sure. Does anyone know what types of particles (energies) are in this image.
 
Physics news on Phys.org
The strength of the magnetic field used and a sense of scale would be needed to calculate energies. Field direction will tell you charge of the particles.

Positron electron pair in top left?
 
It's a very old picture. Nobody uses bubble chambers any more, especially not Fermilab.
