Twisting motion

    @isabelmauricio @Sky4Mapper - Indeed. These are charged particles that are probably traveling slowly, relatively speaking.

    @c20ms - Actually, if you look at the Slice view, you can see that three of the particles are near horizontal - in line with the beam. These probably have lower energy than the ones that are almost vertical (around 90°, perpendicular to the beam). These particles don't look much like they're twisting around each other. However, the particles may look like they are twisting around each other in Normal and Zoom views. The particles that have been removed (the dots in the detectors) have been removed, and they likely have very strong curvature.
