The absolute muon flux between 20 GeV and 3000 GeV is measured with the L3 magnetic muon spectrometer for zenith angles ranging from 0 degree to 58 degree. Due to the large exposure of about 150 m2 sr d, and the excellent momentum resolution of the L3 muon chambers, a precision of 2.3 % at 150 GeV in the vertical direction is achieved. The ratio of positive to negative muons is studied between 20 GeV and 500 GeV, and the average vertical muon charge ratio is found to be 1.285 +- 0.003 (stat.) +- 0.019 (syst.).

    ATLAS measured charged-particle production in 9.62 TeV p-O collisions, yielding a fiducial pO cross section of 396 mb and extrapolated p-air inelastic cross section of 406 mb, with distributions an order of magnitude ...

  2. Monitoring the upper atmospheric temperature and interplanetary magnetic field with the GRAPES-3 muon telescope

    astro-ph.HE 2026-02 conditional novelty 4.0

    From 22 years of GRAPES-3 muon data, the temperature response is -0.224 ± 0.022 %/K and the interplanetary magnetic-field response is -0.574 ± 0.011 %/nT, giving the telescope a possible proxy-monitoring role.
