Investigation of Cosmic Rays on Atlantic Voya e

.ing 10 tons of balloons with hydrogen under a pressure of 150 atm. Cosmic 11 ray observations were made with a three-section neutron monitor,-a stabil
ized system of 35 meson and electron-photon telescopes and with strato-
spheric balloons. About 40,000 individual measurements were made on
shipboard and 64 balloons were launched f'or measuring cosmic rays and
stratospheric temperature. The charged component was registered with a
crossed azimuthal telescope which made it possible to use 35 channels for
registry of the soft and hard components from different directions at
angles 0, 45, 55, 65, 70 and 76? to the vertical. Six additional'channels
were used for checking telescope operation and determining random coinci-
dences. A neutron monitor was used for studying the planetary distribution
of cosmic ray intensity. It was an IGY monitor with Simpson geometry con-
sisting of three sections, each with four SNM-8 counters. The statistical
error for the monitor was about +0.7 percent during 2 hours of registry.
It was calibrated using a'radium-beryllium neutron source. Sixty-four of
74 balloon launchings were successful (complete data for each launching
are given in a table). The collected information will make it possible
to find the barometric coefficients for different cosmic ray components
and estimate their dependence on the energy of primary particles in the
range 1-20.109 eV.

Cosmic Itay Station t Irkutsk z z r' 4122
The Irkutsk cosmic ray station includes a neutron supermonitor (3
sections), azimuthal telescope (four telescopes of cubic geometry), a 42
channel automatic recording system and an auxiliary recording device. The
mean value of the supermonitor (operative since 1967) intensity is 506,000
pulses/hours; for the azimuthal telescope it is 2+6,000 pulses/hour. The
instrument error for the supermonitor is / 0.35%; for the azimuthal telescope

Modification of Dipoles for Rocket Measurements
This article shows wind profiles to altitudes of 32 km obtained on
22 April 1968 using N5, CJ-5/1 and CJ-5/2 dipoles. The author describes
the merits of a new type of dipole (CJ-5/2) in comparison with type N5 used
earlier. The new type is a standard wind sensor for Polish meteorological
rockets. A method for designing-dipoles for wind measurements is described
on the basis of the new type (CJ-5/2) of dipole.
