Comparison of the measured atmospheric muon flux with Monte Carlo simulations for the first KM3NeT/ARCA and KM3NeT/ORCA Detection Units

The KM3NeT Collaboration has successfully deployed the first detection units in the Mediterranean Sea in 2016 and 2017 at the two sites in Italy and in France. The sample of data collected between December 2016 and January 2020 has been used to measure the atmospheric muon flux at two differen t dep...
