This project will fly a passive glass detector as part of the                   payload on a large balloon to be launched from McMurdo,                         Antarctica.  The purpose is to measure the abundance of various                 isotopes of moderately heavy (near iron) cosmic ray nuclei, to                  distinguish between models of stellar evolution which are                       sensitive to the isotopic abundance ratios.  The special glass is               exposed for several days at 120,000 feet altitude to the                        radiation and, after recovery, it is etched with a strong acid.                 This process reveals the tracks left by energetic cosmic rays                   that penetrate the glass.  Study of the etched tracks can                       accurately determine the mass, charge and energy of the nuclei                  that caused them.                                                                                                                                               This project is jointly supported by NSF's Division of Polar                    Programs and Division of Physics and by NASA's Sub-orbital                      Program.
