Scientific paper

An experimental search for high-ionizing particle flux at depth 850 hg/cm2 has been performed using Baksan Underground Scintillation Telescope data. Our trigger conditions were following: only one track in the Telescope; energy deposit >1.5 relativistic particle in each of 4 scintillator layer; <16 hitted detectors in each layer. Thus, our experimental upper limit can be applied to at least 3 underground phenomena: 1) very high-energy muon flux; 2) narrow muon bundle flux; 3) any exotic high-ionizing particle flux. The upper limit for sum of all these fluxes for particle (or particles) with more than 8-fold energy losses is equal to: I(>8 r.p.)<1.8ṡ10-14 cm-2 s-1 ster-1 (67% c. l.)
