Abstract
The sea-level east-west asymmetry of unabsorbed cosmic radiation and of that radiation penetrating two thicknesses of lead, 20° from the vertical, has been measured at geomagnetic latitude 54°N, well above the knee of the latitude effect. Two methods were used to calculate the asymmetry from the data. The results are given in Table I.Keywords
