Recent status of YBJ neutron monitor observation
Abstract
The Japan-China international solar neutron observation program at Yangbajing (30.11N 90.53E, 4300m), Tibet has been started in October 1998. 28 NM-64 counters were installed and the single counts and multiplicities from one to eight counts are recorded for every second. Now we have more than 2 and a half-year data for October 1998 to April 2001.Recently we have observed a large Forbush decease related to the solar flare series occurred at April 2001. We also searched for a possible solar neutron signal using our data and the GOSE X-ray data but we could not find any significant signal during this period.
