โฆ Synopsis
A direct-inking recording system which is capable of resolving impulses separated in time by 0.01 sec., and which can operate continuously for long periods of time, has been utilized in telemetering cosmic-ray signals from balloon-borne equipment. A tape-reader mechanism permits rapid analysis of the records. The device has applications in various types of physical experiments, as well as in other fields.
