The tritium content of seven iron meteorites, five chondrites and two achondrites, was determined by the usual method of fusion of the sampie in high vacumm and pumping the hydrogen obtained into a counter tube. The values obtained are tabulated and show that the ratio of the number of T decays per minute and gram to the time of fall is usually between 0.5 and 0.7. From the cross sections from the formation of tritium in the various elements of the meteorite, the nucleon and particle current of cosmic radiation in the universe is calculated and the results are tabulated. The probable radiation age of the meteorites is discussed. (J.S.R.)
