Attended Graz University from Received Ph.D. from the University of Vienna-1906 Received his doctor's degree in 1910

Member of the Academy of Sciences in Vienna. Assisted Stephan Meyer at the Institute of Radium Research

Director of Research Laboratory for U.S. Radium Corporation Consulting Physicist for U.S. Department of the Interior Taught at Fordham University from Work in the US

Received the Lieben Prize in 1919 Received the Abbe Memorial Prize in1932 Received the Nobel Prize for physics in 1936

~Cosmic Rays~ Discovered in 1912 High energy charged particles Mostly pieces of atoms

Three types: #1 Galactic Cosmic Rays #2 Anomalous Cosmic Rays #3 Solar Energetic Particles

#1-come from outside the solar system #2-come from interstellar space #3-solar flares and other energetic solar events

Contain protons, electrons, and atomic nuclei Originate in outer space Travel at nearly the speed of light

Electrons are lost during passage through the Galaxy Strike Earth from all directions
