Excerpt: Foley (1966) reported specimens of Williamsonia fletcheri Williamson from rand Traverse County, Michigan as the first record of the species from the lower peninsula and the second for the United States. However. two other records for the United States were overlooked and this was actually the fourt

Elemental energy spectra of cosmic rays measured by CREAM-II
We present new measurements of the energy spectra of cosmic-ray (CR) nuclei
from the second flight of the balloon-borne experiment CREAM (Cosmic Ray
Energetics And Mass). The instrument (CREAM-II) was comprised of detectors
based on different techniques (Cherenkov light, specific ionization in
scintillators and silicon sensors) to provide a redundant charge identification
and a thin ionization calorimeter capable of measuring the energy of cosmic
rays up to several hundreds of TeV. The data analysis is described and the
individual energy spectra of C, O, Ne, Mg, Si and Fe are reported up to ~ 10^14
eV. The spectral shape looks nearly the same for all the primary elements and
can be expressed as a power law in energy E^{-2.66+/-0.04}. The nitrogen
absolute intensity in the energy range 100-800 GeV/n is also measured.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figures, presented at ICRC 2009, Lodz, Polan
Measurements of cosmic-ray energy spectra with the 2nd CREAM flight
During its second Antarctic flight, the CREAM (Cosmic Ray Energetics And
Mass) balloon experiment collected data for 28 days, measuring the charge and
the energy of cosmic rays (CR) with a redundant system of particle
identification and an imaging thin ionization calorimeter. Preliminary direct
measurements of the absolute intensities of individual CR nuclei are reported
in the elemental range from carbon to iron at very high energy.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figures, presented at XV International Symposium on Very

Planning the Future of U.S. Particle Physics (Snowmass 2013): Chapter 4: Cosmic Frontier
These reports present the results of the 2013 Community Summer Study of the
APS Division of Particles and Fields ("Snowmass 2013") on the future program of
particle physics in the U.S. Chapter 4, on the Cosmic Frontier, discusses the
program of research relevant to cosmology and the early universe. This area
includes the study of dark matter and the search for its particle nature, the
study of dark energy and inflation, and cosmic probes of fundamental
symmetries.Comment: 61 page
Energy Spectra, Altitude Profiles and Charge Ratios of Atmospheric Muons
We present a new measurement of air shower muons made during atmospheric
ascent of the High Energy Antimatter Telescope balloon experiment. The muon
charge ratio mu+ / mu- is presented as a function of atmospheric depth in the
momentum interval 0.3-0.9 GeV/c. The differential mu- momentum spectra are
presented between 0.3 and about 50 GeV/c at atmospheric depths between 13 and
960 g/cm^2. We compare our measurements with other recent data and with Monte
Carlo calculations of the same type as those used in predicting atmospheric
neutrino fluxes. We find that our measured mu- fluxes are smaller than the
predictions by as much as 70% at shallow atmospheric depths, by about 20% at
the depth of shower maximum, and are in good agreement with the predictions at
greater depths. We explore the consequences of this on the question of
atmospheric neutrino production.Comment: 11 pages, 8 figures, to appear in Phys. Rev. D (2000
