Abstract

Variations in the neutron monitor counting rate at the at the mountain level (3340 m above sea level) during the passage of electrically charged clouds above the installation have been investigated. It is established that the decrease in the counting rate with respect to fair-weather level is due to positive values of the atmospheric electric field (∼40–50 kV m−1). This effect is observed in the low-energy part of the neutron component intensity and is absent in the high-energy part (neutron emission multiplicity exceeds 6).
