An automated algorithmic method to mitigate long-term variations in the efficiency of the GRAPES-3 muon telescope

S. Paul, K. P. Arunbabu, M. Chakraborty +26

The GRAPES-3 large area muon telescope with its sixteen independent modules records the high energy (>1 GeV) muons continuously over 2.3 sr of the sky. However, the recorded muon r…

Dependence of the estimated electric potential in thunderstorms observed at GRAPES-3 on the hadronic interaction generators used in simulations

B. Hariharan, S. K. Gupta, Y. Hayashi +13

A potential difference of 1.3 Giga-Volts (GV) was inferred across a thundercloud using data from the GRAPES-3 muon telescope (G3MT) [1]. This was the first-ever estimation of gigav…

Energy sensitivity of the GRAPES-3 EAS array for primary cosmic ray protons

B. Hariharan, S. Ahmad, M. Chakraborty +23

Low energy ground-based cosmic ray air shower experiments generally have energy threshold in the range of a few tens to a few hundreds of TeV. The shower observables are measured i…

The angular resolution of GRAPES-3 EAS array after correction for the shower front curvature

V. B. Jhansi, S. Ahmad, M. Chakraborty +22

The angular resolution of an extensive air shower (EAS) array plays a critical role in determining its sensitivity for the detection of point -ray sources in the multi-TeV energ…

Measurement of the Electrical Properties of a Thundercloud Through Muon Imaging by the GRAPES-3 Experiment

B. Hariharan, A. Chandra, S. R. Dugad +19

The GRAPES-3 muon telescope located in Ooty, India records rapid (10 min) variations in the muon intensity during major thunderstorms. Out of a total of 184 thunderstorms rec…
