Abstract
| Summary form only given. We present a study of the daily and of the seasonal variations of the underground muons recorded by the MACRO experiment during the period 1991-2000. The analyses are performed with the MACRO streamer tube system. For the seasonal variation study, we have calculated the monthly deviation of the single muon intensity from its average and its correlation with the average monthly temperature variation. (1 refs). |
