By the end of 2014, a cosmic ray muon telescope consisting of two detectors which has 0.5 m × 0.5 m area scintillator was installed at Antarctic Zhongshan Station. It is locate latitude and longitude coordinates of 69.4°S and 76.4°E, respectively, at sea level. The vertical cutoff rigidity of cosmic ray protons at Zhongshan Station is 0.76 GV. The Zhongshan Station muon telescope data shows that there is a significant effect of pressure change with negative correlations. The observation data is sent to China by satellite link and is released through network.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
