Description
Cosmic-ray muon intensity has been continuously measured at the Belgrade muon station since 2002, at both ground level and shallow underground. A new, mobile detector set-up dedicated for cosmic ray measurements has recently started operating. It consists of three parallel plastic scintilator plates (50cm x 50cm x 2cm), placed at 30 cm apart, with a thin lead plate above each scintilator. The detector set-up can operate in single and coincidence mode, utilising off-line analyses of stored event information for all three scintilators. The detector response and calibration for both single and coincidence mode were obtained using a Geant4 based simulation. From experimental and simulation data muon flux has been determined. Time series of the cosmic-ray muon flux were also carried out.
