Research on cosmogenic nuclides in extraterrestrial materials is summarized. Methods for determining average production rates in meteorites are considered as well as the composition dependence of production rates. Also discussed are lunar meteorites, solar-gas-rich meteorites, presolar grains, and solar cosmic rays. 202 refs.
