Title: ZENITH ANGLE RESPONSE OF A VERTICAL MESON TELESCOPE

Journal Article · · Proc. Indian Acad. Sci.
OSTI ID:4306622

Expressions have bocn obtained for the Geometrical Sensitivity as a function of the zenith angle of a cosmic ray tdlescope comprising of counter trays of rectangular dimensions. The Radiation Sensitivity and Cumulative Sensitivity have also been calculated, assuming a zenith angle attenuation of the form I/sub THETA / = I/sub THETA /.cos/sup 2/ THETA / for cosmic ray intensity (auth)
