Abstract

Research was concerned with: (1) A continuation of the study of high energy cosmic-ray reactions by means of cloud chambers. The purpose of this project is to work in the high energy range not yet possible with machines. (2) A study of the behavior of cosmic rays as a function of solar activity. This is a continuation of the balloon program started in 1951. (3) In 1957 activities under this contract were expanded to include work of Professor R. B. Leighton on the properties of the photosphere of the sun. (Author)
