The energy spectrum of surviving collisionless primary cosmic-ray protons in the atmosphere has been obtained from the observation of high-energy nuclear bursts produced by singly charged particles in the energy range from 3 TeV to 30 TeV without accompanying air shower particles at Chacaltaya, Bolivia. Comparison of this spectrum with an extrapolation of the energy spectrum of primary cosmic-ray protons obtained by Ryan et al. to higher energies with the same exponent shows a logarithmic rise of the cross-section for proton-air nucleus collisions from 3 TeV to 9 TeV.
