Description:

In autumn 1976, I proposed to Edwin Link, Vice President, Harbor Branch Foundation, Inc., Ft. Pierce, Fla., that Harbor Branch/Johnson-Sealink (JSL) submersible be used to prepare on the ocean bottom, and then lock out, sensitive photographic emulsion stacks for the detection of cosmic-ray muons.* The ocean would serve as an homogeneous and isotropic filter, absorbing most cosmic-ray and other nuclear particles, except, for purpose of this experiment, the muons (or mu-mesons).
