Abstract
IN the Times of October 8, Prof. A. Piccard gives an account of his experiments on the cosmic rays during his balloon ascent on August 10, in which he was accompanied by Max Cosyns, and reached a maximum height of 53,672 feet. Two distinct types of observations on the cosmic rays were made on this occasion, one to determine the variation of intensity of the rays with height, and the other to determine the distribution of the radiation in different directions.
