The neutron flux in space following a polar cap neutron event on November 15, 1960

A neutron detector flown on an Atlas pod during the 15 November 1960 solar event measured a larger neutron flux than another detector flown on a similar vehicle during a quiet solar period. The excess neutron flux at low latitudes obtained by comparing these two measurements is about an order of magnitude higher than expected from the neutron production in the atmosphere by solar protons as deduced from Lingenfelter's calculations and Webber's model for the 15 November event. It is suggested that most of the discrepancy can be accounted for by considering neutron production by energetic solar alpha particles and lowered geomagnetic cutoffs.

Source deck compression and update program (CAPS)

Computer program for compressing program source decks and other data coded in Hollerith format is described. Compression of card image record by substitution of special code characters is discussed. Program is written for IBM 360/75/95 Release 19 computer.
