Abstract:
'We have developed the desensitized nuclear emulsion films suitable for the detection of heavy cosmic ray nuclei in the high speed image processing systems (HTS) which was utilized at Nagoya University. And we have carried out our balloon flight of nuclear emulsion telescope for high resolution gamma-ray imaging of Vela Pulsar in April, 2018. We have deployed the emulsion chamber which consisted of several sensitivity type of desensitized nuclear emulsion films in this balloon flight.rnWe are going to report the results of this pilot studies of the application of desensitized films for the detection of cosmic ray nuclei, and the potential of sensitivity control of nuclear emulsion films suitable for image analysis.'
