Extract

In the field of cosmic ray galactic studies, two kinds of phenomenon are currently being investigated by members of the Hobart cosmic ray group, led by Dr. A. G. Fenton. In a combined project with the University of South Australia, the University of Tasmania is participating in an experiment whose aim is to locate sources of galactic X-rays in a part of the southern sky inaccessible from the northern hemisphere. The object of the other investigation, which forms part of a joint ANARE-University programme of cosmic ray research, is to elucidate the evidence for intensity maxima from fixed galactic directions in the otherwise isotropic charged primary radiation.
