Experiment Title: Measurement of Heavy Cosmic-Ray Nuclei on LDEF

Original Principal Investigator(s): Enge, Wolfgang - Invest. Role: Original, Siegmon, Georg - Invest. Role: Original, Beaujean, Dr. Rudolf - Invest. Role: Original, Beaujean, Dr. Rudolf - Invest. Role: Present,

Experiment Description:

The long duration flight of LDEF provided the opportunity to collect a reasonable number of heavy cosmic-ray nuclei. A knowledge of the abundance of these nuclei is essential to any theory on the source, acceleration, propagation, confinement, and age of cosmic rays.
