Abstract: Two identical calibration neutron monitors were completed in September 2002. They are designed to provide an intercalibration between the ≈ 50 neutron monitors around the world, so that rigidity spectra can be calculated from them. This paper discusses the final results of latitudinal sur-...

Description
Summary:Abstract: Two identical calibration neutron monitors were completed in September 2002. They are designed to provide an intercalibration between the ≈ 50 neutron monitors around the world, so that rigidity spectra can be calculated from them. This paper discusses the final results of latitudinal sur-veys by one of them on five voyages from Seattle to McMurdo, Antarctica, and back. The other cali-brator was used to investigate temperature and environmental sensitivity, which are also reported.
