High-Latitude Cosmic Ray Observatories in Canada

摘要9424005比伯该奖项将在两年内继续运行加拿大的两站宇宙线中子监视器阵列，目前计划很快被拥有和运营它们的加拿大国家研究委员会终止。首席调查员来自巴托尔研究所，他已经与核管理委员会达成了一项协议，这将允许他运营这些公司，并可能最终获得所有权。这项裁决为移交安排提供了时间，并确定了各种此类设施的相对优先次序。这些仪器与其他高纬度监测器一起，对宇宙线研究做出了特别重要的贡献，因为它们的视场界定得很清楚，而且与中纬度监测器相比，它们对低能宇宙射线的敏感性要高得多。***

Abstract 9424005 Bieber This award will continue for two years the operation of a two station array of cosmic ray neutron monitors in Canada which are presently scheduled to be terminated very soon by the Canadian National Research Council (NRC), which owns and operates them. The Principal Investigator, who is from Bartol Research Institute, has reached an agreement with the NRC which will allow him to run them and probably eventually obtain ownership. This award gives time for the arrangements for transfer to occur as well as to determine the relative priority of various such facilities. These instruments, along with other high latitude monitors, are especially important contributors to cosmic ray studies because their fields of view are well defined and also because they are much more sensitive to low energy cosmic rays, compared to mid- latitude monitors. ***
