Monitoring the upper atmospheric temperature and interplanetary magnetic field with the GRAPES-3 muon telescope
S. Paul, K. P. Arunbabu, M. Chakraborty +17
We study the influence of variations in the upper atmospheric temperature and interplanetary magnetic field on the cosmic ray induced atmospheric muon flux measured by the GRAPES-3…
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…
Small-scale cosmic ray anisotropy observed by the GRAPES-3 experiment at TeV energies
M. Chakraborty, S. Ahmad, A. Chandra +35
GRAPES-3 is a mid-altitude (2200 m) and near equatorial ( North) air shower array, overlapping in its field of view for cosmic ray observations with experiments that…
First High-speed Video Camera Observations of a Lightning Flash Associated with a Downward Terrestrial Gamma-ray Flash
R. U. Abbasi, M. M. F. Saba, J. W. Belz +146
In this paper, we present the first high-speed video observation of a cloud-to-ground lightning flash and its associated downward-directed Terrestrial Gamma-ray Flash (TGF). The op…
Observation of Variations in Cosmic Ray Single Count Rates During Thunderstorms and Implications for Large-Scale Electric Field Changes
R. U. Abbasi, T. Abu-Zayyad, M. Allen +160
We present the first observation by the Telescope Array Surface Detector (TASD) of the effect of thunderstorms on the development of cosmic ray single count rate intensity over a 7…
