= TRACER (cosmic ray detector)
{wiki=TRACER_(cosmic_ray_detector)}
TRACER (TRacking and Composition of High-Energy Radiation) is a cosmic ray detector designed to study the composition, energy, and origin of cosmic rays, which are high-energy particles from outer space that continually bombard the Earth's atmosphere. The primary goal of TRACER is to improve our understanding of cosmic rays, including their sources, acceleration mechanisms, and propagation through the universe. TRACER employs advanced detection techniques to track and analyze cosmic rays as they interact with the atmosphere and various materials.
