Scientific paper

A stack of CR-39 plastic track detectors was exposed to cosmic radiation during the 10 days mission aboard Spacelab-1. A part of the stack was rotated one revolution within 7 days. The impact time of most of the particles was correlated with the orbit position of the shuttle and thus with geomagnetic field parameters. The analysis of heavy particles with charge Z 6 in the energy range 50-150 MeV per nucleon with special emphasis on geomagnetically forbidden particles is reported.
