Abstract
The correlation of variations in the neutron intensity of cosmic radiation with variations in meteorological conditions has been investigated at 6262 ft and at sea level over the period from 1952 to 1955. A low-energy directional neutron detector was operated during the summer months of this period to monitor the intensity of neutrons with energies less than 0.5 ev. In addition a lead-paraffin pile detector was used to monitor the moderate energy neutrons.Keywords
