High-Altitude Ballooning. They sell good balloons and DIY kits. Near-Space.
Quantum Entanglement Experiment. Uses coincidence-linked Geiger counters, aluminium cubes as prisms, and a positron (double gamma) source.
Instructions for building a Radon collection and measuring system. Requires a particular transistor, but can otherwise be made from household goods.
Simple cloud chamber
Possible radioactive isotope supplier in UK
The folks in charge of radiation issues in Latvia.
A technical paper (involves fluid mechanics) which tries to create a model for the varying ascent rate of a balloon (slows, then accelerates, then slow rapidly around 12 km, then gradual acceleration
I think this is the process that explains why the gammas will be scattered off the Al blocks in Markus's entanglement experiment.
(quite technical!)
