Abstract
Abstract We assess the possibilities of registering and analysing heavy charged particles in some naturally occurring minerals from the earth and from meteorites. Using tracks of fission fragments we determine the uranium concentration of the examined minerals, as well as the radiation age in some cases. Based upon the density of the iron-group nuclei of galactic cosmic rays in meteorite minerals, information is obtained concerning their duration in the cosmos and the possible use of these meteorites for analysing the heavy components of galactic cosmic rays.
