Zwischen dem 12. Juni und dem 2. August 1961 wurde eine Serie von 23 Fltigen mit unbemannten Ballonen zur Messung der Kosmischen Strahlung, Solarer Protonen und Rontgen- strahlungsausbrtichen in groBen Hohen tiber der Nordlicht- zone erfolgreich durchgeftihrt. Die automatisch registrie- renden Gerate und die Besonderheiten der MeBmethode werden im einzelnen beschrieben. Die MeBergebnisse sind in 45 Kurvenblattern (Teil B) zusammengefaBt. Neben den Rontgenstrahlungsausbrtichen, die verhaltnis- maBig haufig in der Nordlichtzone auftreten, wurden 4 FaIle von Injektionen solarer Protonen am 12. , 18. , 20. und 27. Juli registriert, wahrend sich 2 sehr aktive Fackel- gebiete tiber die Sonnenscheibe hinwegbewegten. Die verschiedenen Ereignisse werden kurz diskutiert. Die hier beschriebenen Messungen fanden zu einem groBen Teil gleichzeitig mit solchen ahnlicher Art statt, die von amerikanischen Gruppen durchgeftihrt wurden. I. Introduction Until 20 years ago most of our knowledge on cosmical ob- jects was based merely on the analysis of visible light reaching the earth from outer space. This changed when appropriate techniques had been developed to utilize in- creasingly the perception that every kind of radiation or - generally spoken - any structure of energy hitting the earth carries information on its origin and on the con- ditions in space which influenced its qualities and propagation. This holds especially also for radiation of charged particles. In the main part of this paper we shall report on measure- ments of such charged particles and of high energy photons produced by them.
