A collection of some comsic ray physics notes and charts from Antarctica in the period 1959-1986
Listed in NASA Earthdata CMR
Several boxes of paper records belonging to Dr Peter Fenton (a cosmic ray physicist based at the University of Tasmania), were provided to the Australian Antarctic Data Centre by his daughter, Dr Gwen Fenton.
Description
The paper records included charts of data collected from Australian Antarctic stations between 1959 and 1986, as well as some explanatory notes, correspondence and administration records. Dr Peter Fenton also had an older brother, Dr Geoff Fenton, who was also a cosmic ray physicist based at the University of Tasmania.
