THE HIGH ALTITUDE SAMPLING PROGRAM. VOLUME 5. SUPPLEMENTARY HASP STUDIES

Abstract

A set of filter collections were obtained in connection with the HASP study of stratospheric particles. These samples were exposed for long time periods in the stratosphere. These analyses may provide estimates of the amounts of extra-terrestrial material present in the stratosphere. Physical methods employed in the studies of particles in filters and on impactors and the procedures and methods employed in the neutron activation studies are described. The results of the various analyses are presented and discussed. A discussion is presented of the implications of the results of the particle studies in regard to behavior of nuclear debris. A list of conclusions is also presented.
