Measurements of cosmogenic particles at various locations and altitudes are becoming increasingly important in view worldwide interests rare signals for search new physics. In this work, we report measurement muon zenith angle distributions integrated flux using a portable setup four one-meter long liquid scintillator bars. Each bar is read out from both sides via photomultiplier tubes followed by an 8-channel Digitizer. We exploit energy deposition excellent timing scintillators to...
Abstract The particle showers produced in the atmosphere due to interactions of primary cosmic particles require a thorough understanding backdrop searches for rare interactions. In this work, we made comprehensive study air shower simulations using various combinations hadronic models and transport code CORSIKA package. proton helium distributions are taken as power law which scaled match measured flux balloon satellite-based experiments at top atmosphere. simulation includes production,...
A 51-kiloton magnetised Iron Calorimeter (ICAL) detector, using Resistive Plate Chambers (RPCs) as active detector elements, aims to study atmospheric neutrinos. prototype - 1/600 of the weight ICAL, called mini-ICAL was installed in INO transit campus at Madurai. modest proof-of-principle cosmic muon veto about 1 m × 0.3 dimensions set up a few years ago, scintillator paddles. The measured efficiency 99.98% and simulation studies muon-induced background events ICAL surrounded by an...
