Upward-going muon physics with the macro detector

  • 1. Boston University Physics Department, 590 Commonwealth Avenue, Boston, Massachusetts 02215 (United States)

Description

Roughly 5 million muon events from six months of running with the lower half of the MACRO detector combined with 2.5 years of running with 1/6 of the lower detector have been analyzed looking for upward-going muons by using time information in the scintillator counters. The total number of upgoing muons observed was 74±9stat±8sys compared to an expected number of events of 101±15sys. copyright 1995 American Institute of Physics
