Abstract:In this article we present results of the study on the association between the muon flux variation at ground level, registered by the New-Tupi muon telescopes (22 0 53 00 S, 43 0 06 13 W ; 3 m above sea level) and a geomagnetic storm of 25 -29 August 2015 that has raged for several days as a result of a coronal mass ejection (CME) impact on Earth's magnetosphere. A sequence of events started with an M3.5 X-ray class flare on 22 August 2015 at 21:19 UTC. The New-Tupi muon telescopes observed a Forbush decrease … Show more
