THE HISTORY OF COSMIC RAYS AND METEORITES
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:4695008
The nature and origin of meteorites are discussed; and techniques used in determining the age and the exposure times of meteorites by analysis of cosmic ray reactions within them are described. Similarly, meteorite analysis as a means of determining cosmic ray constancy and distribution is examined. Study of cosmic radiation with satellites is briefly treated. (D.C.W.)
