Abstract

Instruments & Instrumentation Nuclear Science & Technology Physical Sciences Physics Physics, Nuclear Physics, Particles & Fields Science & Technology Technology
An air shower array of seven plastic scintillation detectors has been built and commissioned at an altitude of 2200 meters above sea level in the Eastern Himalayas (Darjeeling). Continuous measurement of shower rate using this array is going on since the end of January, 2018. The method of measurement and experimental results are presented in this article.
