Scientific paper

A description is given of an attempt to duplicate the small particles formed by evaporation and recondensation during the flight of meteors in the atmosphere by heating meteors at a low pressure.A metallic meteorite produced entirely shiny spherules, almost all of which were in the size range 5 to 25 diameter, while a stony meteorite produced only irregular aggregates of tiny particles whose maximum dimensions were 0.1 to 0.2 . At water salutation and 10C, it is estimated that the iron meteorite creates about 105106 ice nuclei per gram and the stony meteorite about 108109. It is concluded that sufficient ice nuclei active at 15C are produced to explain observed concentrations in the troposphere.
