Galactic cosmic ray anisotropy at approximately 6.1013 E
Abstract
Arrival times of 1.14 x ten to the eighth power extensive air showers registered on the peak Musala (geographical latitude 42 deg N) were analyzed for sidereal variation. The solar and antisidereal waves remain below noise level while the first and second sidereal daily waves prove to be significant adding up to an anisotropy of 0.1 per cent. Intensity maximum is obtained when directions near the galactic plane are scanned. Some consequences of the result obtained are discussed.
