A propos de cet article

Xi, 212 Pp. Beige Cloth, Gilt. First Printing. Fine, No Wear At All, Gilt Brilliant, Well Protected In The Original Plain Brown Dj Which Is Missing Most Of The Upper 1/3 Of Spine And Front Panel. Serge A. Korff (1906-1989) Was A Physicist Who Led Worldwide Observations Of Cosmic Rays In The 1940'S And 1950'S, Using Balloons, Aircraft And Mountaintop Observatories. Serge Alexander Korff Was Born In Helsinki, Finland. His Father, A Baron, Belonged To A Prominent Russian Family And Was Professor Of Russian Law At The University Of Helsinki Before Emigrating To The United States. Mr. Korff Graduated From Princeton University In 1929, Obtaining His Doctorate There In 1931.

The Focus Of His Scientific Career Was Observing And Mapping The Rain Of Neutrons -Electrically Neutral Atomic Particles -Produced By High Energy Radiation, Or Cosmic Rays, Striking The Top Of The Atmosphere All Over The Earth. Balloon Observations Were Made Above Guam, The Galapagos Islands, Greenland, The Caribbean And Several Points Within The United States.
