RAPID: Re-Deployment of the Mount Washington Neutron Monitor

这个为期一年的RAPID项目的主要目标是重新部署华盛顿山（MW）中子监测仪（NM），这将使项目团队随后能够：(i)将其重新整合到全球NM网络中；（ii）向世界范围的宇宙射线和日球圈群落提供数据；（iii）使用Durham NM，重新创建在GLE（地面增强）开始时出现的不受各向异性影响的罕见台站对之一；（iv）恢复对银河宇宙射线（GCR）强度的长期日球层监测，用于多周期调制研究。重新部署MW NM也将为柏林高中职业课程的学生提供教育经验。在山顶架设小屋是学校几个学生的学期项目。此外，联合国大学的本科生将参与重新部署工作。他们将参与以太网布线，仪器组装，测试，软件集成以及将2006年及更早的华盛顿山数据与当前数据相结合的长期努力。该项目的研究和EPO议程支持AGS部门在发现、学习、多样性和跨学科研究方面的战略目标。

The main objective of this 1-year RAPID project is to re-deploy the Mount Washington (MW) Neutron Monitor (NM), which will subsequently allow the project team to: (i) re-integrate it with the global NM network; (ii) provide data to the world-wide cosmic-ray and heliospheric communities; (iii) with the Durham NM, re-create one of the rare pairs of stations immune to anisotropy effects present during a GLE (Ground Level Enhancements) onset; and, (iv) resume the long-term heliosphere monitoring of the galactic cosmic ray (GCR) intensity for multi-cycle modulation studies. The re-deployment of the MW NM would also provide an educational experience for the students of the Berlin High School Vocational Program. The erection of the shack at the summit is a term project for several students in the School. Furthermore, undergraduate students at the UNH will participate in the re-deployment effort. They will participate in ethernet cabling, instrument assembly, testing, software integration and the longer term effort of joining the Mt. Washington data from 2006 and earlier with the current data. The research and EPO agenda of this project supports the Strategic Goals of the AGS Division in discovery, learning, diversity, and interdisciplinary research.
