ment of Ar/sup 39/ which is produced in iron meteorites by the action of cosmic radiation on Fe nuclei. Of the three meteroites studied, only Treysa had a measurable Ar/sup 39/ activity. For the instant of descent of Treysa a decay rate of 0.36 + 0.2/kg-sec was obtained. The negative results for the Carbo and Clark County meteorites show that their instant of descent must be put back 1000 years. From these measurements the radiation age of Treysa can be set at 6 x 10/ sup 8/ years. Further, for the cosmic radiation intensity for particles over 1- Bev energy a value of I/sub 0/ = 0.25 plus or minus 0.07 particles/cm/sec/ sterad results. (tr-auth)
