To give you an idea of density/frequency of this occurring: my wife's CCD for her PhD experiments routinely (roughly 1 in 5) pick up huge spikes from cosmic rays during her 30-second exposures. The CCD is less than an inch square and she's 2 floors down from ground level.
- Tichy 16y agoIs she certain that it is not another PhD student one floor above her experimenting with X-Rays?
- yellowbkpk 16y agoYes, she uses the specific room in the building because it's farthest away from noisey experiments.
