Results of a preliminary investigation of the energetic and spatial characteristics of multiple penetrating particle events at a depth of 200 m are reported. Single penetrating particles, multiple parallel penetrating particles and nonparallel penetrating particles were recorded by a set of four vertical and inclined multilayer spark counters. Integral energy spectra for single and multiple parallel events indicate the operability of the method employed, as well as the presence of a tendency for the spectral hardening of muon penetration events at large angles to the vertical. The up to five-fold increase in multiple penetrating particle energy with inclination is found to be independent of beam particle number, and is explained by geometrical considerations. Further analyses of multiple penetrating particle data are expected to provide data concerning high-energy muon interactions.
