Extraterrestrial Effects of Cosmic Rays

Zwicky, F.

Abstract

So far only interactions of cosmic rays with terrestrial matter have been investigated. If cosmic rays are present in interstellar and intergalactic space, they produce physical changes on extraterrestrial objects also. The question therefore arises if such changes are observable. The following considerations make it probable that this question is to be answered in the affirmative.
