He entered aspirantura of the faculty in 1944 and six years later defended dissertation " Density spectrum of Extensive Air Showers " for Candidate of Sciences degree.

Experiments with spectrometer lead to the discovery of protons in cosmic rays ( Alikhanian et al ., 1945 ) and narrow air showers ( Alikhanian, Asatiani, 1945 ).
33.
GRAPES-3 ( Gamma Ray Astronomy PeV EnergieS phase-3 ) is designed to study cosmic rays with an array of air shower detectors and a large area muon detector.
34.
HiRes-I was instrumented with sample and hold electronics which took a " snapshot " of the extensive air shower generated when the incident cosmic ray interacted with the atmosphere.
35.
Anderson and Neddermeyer collaborated with Millikan in high altitude studies of cosmic rays, which confirmed Robert Oppenheimer's theory that the air showers produced in the atmosphere by cosmic rays contained electrons.
36.
Astrophysics observatories using the Cherenkov technique to measure air showers are key to determine the properties of astronomical objects that emit Very High Energy gamma rays, such as supernova remnants and blazars.
37.
The Japanese group, led by the Institute for Cosmic Ray Research of the University of Tokyo, reached its conclusions from data gathered by the Akeno Giant Air Shower Array from 1990 through 1997.
38.
A follow-on experiment to the High Resolution Fly's Eye and Akeno Giant Air Shower Array ( AGASA ) experiments is the Telescope Array Project which began data collection in central Utah in 2007.
39.
KASCADE ( including all extensions ) stopped operation in 2013, but a part of the detectors is still used in other experiments for cosmic-ray air showers, e . g ., LOFAR or Tunka.

Neely said that female guards used to regularly take their turns escorting captives to the open-air showers, and that the captives felt humiliated to be exposed, naked, in front of the female guard.
