Multi-directional cosmic-ray muon telescope at Nagoya - HOURLY MUON INTENSITIES

2014-09-23 01:00:00

This is the database of cosmic ray intensity obtained by the Multi-Directional Cosmic-Ray Muon Telescope at Nagoya. This telescope was constructed as a part of Japanese program for the International Active Sun Year (IASY) and started continuous observation of the cosmic-ray intensities in October 1970. This telescope has an effective area of 36 m^2 x 2 stages. The height of the observatory is 77 m above sea level. For details of the data, please take a look at http://www.stelab.nagoya-u.ac.jp/ste-www1/div3/muon/dbtext22.pdf. In this meta-database, we chose particle as proton due to restriction of the current SPASE format. However, the actual measurement is done for muon. The primary cosmic ray intensity and energy range recorded in this meta data was inferred from the muon measurement on the ground.

You are welcome to use Nagoya Muon Telescope data under the conditions: 1) to acknowledge Cosmic Ray Section, Institute for Space-Earth Environmental Research, Nagoya University in any publised use of the data, 2) to send a copy of any paper using these data to: Yutaka Matsubara, Institute for Space-Earth Environmental Research, Nagoya University, Nagoya 464-8601 Japan (ymatsu at isee.nagoya-u.ac.jp).
