    Cosmic Shower: Analysis of Factors Affecting Events Leading to Cosmic Shower
    (Addis Ababa University, 2020-11-13) Lakew, Weldegebriel; Tesfaye, Tilahun (PhD)
    The aim of this work is to investigate and study the effects of geographic factors on cosmic shower at different locations around the globe. The Quark Net Cosmic Ray Detector; the data repository and the analysis tool at http://www.i2u2.org/elab/cosmic/data/ were used to gather and analyze data gathered at different sites across the globe. The results indicate that events that lead to cosmic shower are strongly correlated to altitude of the locale and factors like longitudinal and latitude of the locations are moderately related to the intensity of events. Further the importance of, cosmic ray, observation for more than 12 hours is inferred from the data
