A portable cosmic ray detector for school education [PDF]
Journal of Instrumentation, 2021 Abstract This article describes the design, assembly and characterization of a portable cosmic ray detector, developed by the INSULAB group and suitable for teaching activities aimed at high school students. It consists of a compact aluminum suitcase containing three plastic scintillator modules coupled to photomultipliers ...

Cosmic Rays with the LEP detectors [PDF]
Nuclear Physics B - Proceedings Supplements, 2003 The LEP detectors are well suited for different studies on cosmic ray induced muons. In here, several aspects of the muon spectrum are reported. The vertical as well as the zenith-angle dependence of both the absolute muon spectrum and the muon charge ratio have been measured.

High energy cosmic-rays and neutrinos from cosmological gamma-ray burst fireballs [PDF]
, 1999 The recent detection of delayed, low energy emission from Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB) sources confirmed the cosmological origin of the bursts and provided support for models where GRBs are produced by the dissipation of the kinetic energy of relativistic ...

Air Shower Detection by Arrays of Radio Antennas [PDF]
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2019 Antenna arrays are beginning to make important contributions to high energy astroparticle physics supported by recent progress in the radio technique for air showers. This article provides an update to my more extensive review published in Prog.

A Study on anisotropy of cosmic ray distribution with a small array of water-cherenkov detectors [PDF]
, 2007 The study of the anisotropy of the arrival directions is an essential tool to investigate the origin and propagation of cosmic rays primaries. A simple way of recording many cosmic rays is to record coincidences between a number of detectors.

Receiving vectors of muon telescope of cosmic ray station Novosibirsk
Solar-Terrestrial Physics, 2016 The method of receiving vectors allows us to determine cosmic ray anisotropy at every moment of time. Also, the method makes it possible to study fast anisotropy fluctuations related to the interplanetary medium dynamics.
