Hello Radsafers:
A few days back Steve Frey wrote that "we all live in a tritium world.
Cosmic ray interactions with the atmosphere produce about 4 million
curies of tritium per year, ...", and "everybody" knows that C-14 is
also constantly being formed by a similar process. Can anyone give
me more details about these items, papers or books where I can learn
more about this process.
Thank you, and please reply directly to my e-mail address,
