Several boxes of paper records belonging to Dr Peter Fenton (a cosmic ray physicist based at the University of Tasmania), were provided to the Australian Antarctic Data Centre by his daughter, Dr Gwen Fenton. The paper records included charts of data collected from Australian Antarctic stations between 1959 and 1986, as well as some explanatory notes, correspondence and administration records. Dr Peter Fenton also had an older brother, Dr Geoff Fenton, who was also a cosmic ray physicist based at the University of Tasmania.
