Abstract

Continuous monitoring of the muon flux over wide ranges of zenith and azimuth angles with the URAGAN detector (Moscow, 55.7° N, 37.7° E, 173 m AMSL) allows detection of variations in its intensity and angular distribution. A way of locating domains of anisotropy in the muon angular distribution is described, and they are mapped in matrix form in the GSE coordinate system. The maximum depth (height) of deformation, the zenith and azimuth angles of the center in the local system, and its GSE longitude and latitude are determined for each observed domain. The GSE longitudes of the detected domains of anisotropy are available on the Internet as functions of time and can be used to monitor the heliosphere’s activity.
