The Extreme Energy Events (EEE) experiment consists in a network of cosmic muon tracker telescopes, each made of three Multi-gap Resistive Plate Chambers (MRPC), able to precisely measure the absolute muon crossing time and the muon integrated angular flux at the ground level. To investigate the MRPC telescope response and performance, a simulation tool was developed in GEMC, software package based on GEANT4 libraries. [...]

Bologna, DIFA) et al.
The existence of time correlations in detectors separated by distances much larger than the size of the highest energy extensive air showers (EAS) has been long discussed over the years. Several mechanisms have been proposed to justify the existence of such events and, in the last decade, some experiments have also tried to search for correlations on a large scale distance, beyond one hundred kilometers.

/ Cerretto, G ; Calonico, D ; Cantoni, E ; Levi, F ; Mura, A ; Sellone, M ; Abbrescia, M ; Avanzini, C ; Baldini, L ; Ferroli, R Baldini et al.
In this paper, the description of a new activity started at INRIM Time Laboratory at the end of year 2019, is proposed. It is based on the on-going support provided to the Extreme Energy Events (EEE) Cosmic Rays Observatory, for the metrological characterization and optimization of its timing system. [...]

Due to their efficiency, tracking capabilities and long-term operational conditions, Multigap Resistive Plate Chambers (MRPC) may be used in a stable location in coincidence with additional detectors fixed to other parts of a civil building, to detect relative displacements of different parts of the building due to long term deformations of the structure. In this contribution we report the results of two different measurements carried out in the Department of Physics and Astronomy of the University of Catania (with three floors above the ground and an underground basement), using one of the MRPC telescopes of the Extreme Energy Events project, in coincidence with two scintillator-based muon telescopes located in various positions inside the building.
