Scientific paper

Detailed experimental information is presented on five families of the highest energy range, above 1000 TeV, observed by the Chacaltaya emulsion chamber experiment. The emulsion chamber and the large families are briefly described, measurements on the halo and individual shower spots are described, and experimental results on the halo and shower spots are given. All the observed events are hadron-rich and the energy spectrum of hadrons is harder than that of electrons/gamma rays. An attempt is made to reconstruct the parent atmospheric interactions, and it is concluded that the data are inconsistent with the hypothesis of proton primary with pion multiple production under the scaling model.
