Description
The analysis of angular and phase distribution is reported for high energy muons recorded in the NUSEX nucleon decay detector, located in the Mont Blanc tunnel at a depth of about 5000 hg of standard rock. Evidence is found for a signal correlated to the direction and time modulation of Cygnus X-3. (orig.)
