Aerospace

Primary cosmic rays from outer space which consist mainly of protons with energies of 2-20 billion electron volts (Bev).For 1000 protons there are about 80 helium nuclei, about 3 nuclei in the carbon-nitrogen-oxygen range, and 1 or 2 heavier nuclei. The proton energy may be as high as 105 Bev, and the other nuclei show an energy distribution similar to that of the protons. (references)
