Experimental results for flights at the geomagnetic latitudes 10 deg and 55 deg North in 1953 are presented. The data are presented in total flux as a function of atmospheric depth, pulse height distributions during ascent, and fast albedo and slow proton intensities at 0 and 60 deg zenith angles. The character of the splash albedo is illustrated by plots of its dependence on geomagnetic latitude, zenith and azimuthal angle, and on atmospheric depth. (M.H.R.)
