RE: cherenkov radiation [ cosmic ray origin ]



There is a very well-written popular-level book on cosmic rays called
"Cosmic Bullets".  It is written by Roger Clay and Bruce Dawson, published
by Addison Wesley, and came out in 1997.  It discusses, among other things,
air showers and Cherenkov detectors.

It is a capital mistake to theorize before one has data.  Insensibly one
begins to twist facts to suit theories, instead of theories to suit facts.
