Since 2019, the Extreme Energy Events (EEE) Project has installed three muon detection stations at the Svalbard Islands (78.9∘N latitude), employing scintillator-based detectors. This initiative represents the first systematic effort to monitor cosmic-muons rates at high geomagnetic latitudes beyond the Arctic Circle, with the objective of improving our understanding of cosmic-ray propagation and modulation in polar regions. The present study analyses temporal variations in the muon detection rates over a six-year period (2019–2025), including the study of periodic modulations and underlying trends in the observed rates.

Abstract
Since 2019, the Extreme Energy Events (EEE) Project has installed three muon detection stations at the Svalbard Islands (78.9∘N latitude), employing scintillator-based detectors. This initiative represents the first systematic effort to monitor cosmic-muons rates at high geomagnetic latitudes beyond the Arctic Circle, with the objective of improving our understanding of cosmic-ray propagation and modulation in polar regions. The present study analyses temporal variations in the muon detection rates over a six-year period (2019–2025), including the study of periodic modulations and underlying trends in the observed rates.File in questo prodotto:
