Scientific paper

For the past decade BESS (Balloon-b orne experiment with a superconducting spectrometer) has collected large quantities of cosmic-ray hydrogen and helium data. The instrument flown in 1998 was able to detect tritium between 0.10 GeV/n and 1.0 GeV/n. The timing resolution of 75 pico-seconds enabled the instrument to separate 3 H from 2 H with excellent mass resolution. The energy spectrum of 3 H and its abundance relative to parent nuclei were measured. The implications of these results on atmospheric 2 H corrections is discussed in this paper.
