A determination was made of the fluxes of medium and heavy nuclei in primary cosmic radiation, using a stack of nuclear emulsions over Guarn ( lambda = 40 deg M, at an altitude of 101,000 feet for 7 hrs. The emulsions were scanned for the tracks of heavy nuclei, and a determination of the charge was made by delta -counting. A clear resolution was achieved between particles of the various charge groups. (A.C.)
