Description

Explore the life and scientific legacy of Carl Stormer (1874-1957) in this specialized biography from the Astrophysics and Space Science Library. This volume details the work of a man who changed our understanding of the heavens through rigorous observation and mathematical precision. Learn how Stormer developed the first precise photographic methods to calculate the heights and shapes of different auroral forms across four solar cycles. The text covers his independent development of numerical techniques used to track the trajectories of high-energy charged particles within the Earth's magnetic field. This book provides a deep look into his theoretical work on cosmic ray access to the upper atmosphere, a discovery made 20 years before other scientists identified the phenomenon. Readers will gain insight into his most significant achievement, known as "The Po," and his lasting impact on space science and the study of the aurora.
