The Extreme Energy Events project (EEE) is aimed to study Extensive Air Showers (EAS) from primary cosmic rays of more than 10(18) eV energy detecting the ground secondary muon component using an array of telescopes with high spatial and time resolution. The second goal of the EEE project is to involve High School teachers and students in this advanced research work and to initiate them in scientific culture: to reach both purposes the telescopes are located inside High School buildings and the detector construction, assembling and monitoring - together with data taking and analysis - are done by researchers from scientific institutions in close collaboration with them.

The Extreme Energy Events HECR array: status and perspectives
/ EEE Collaboration
Extreme Energy Events is a inhomogeneus array of high time resolution tracking telescopes extending over 10 degrees in latitude and longitude. Because of its unique and unconventional features the experiment is searching for rare and exotics cosmic ray-related phenomena, like Extensive Air Showers Long Distance Correlations, as well as addressing middle and low energy topics, like local anisotropies, sun activities survey and life-related issues.

Distributions of secondary cosmic muons were measured by the Multigap Resistive Plate Chambers (MRPC) telescopes of the Extreme Energy Events (EEE) Project, spanning a large angular and temporal acceptance through its sparse sites, to test the possibility to search for any anomaly over long runs. After correcting for the time exposure and geometrical acceptance of the telescopes, data were transformed into equatorial coordinates, and equatorial sky maps were obtained from different sites on a preliminary dataset of 110M events in the energy range at sub-TeV scale..
