Description
Summary:This paper offers a method for estimating the normalized instrument response function (IRF) of the URAGAN muon hodoscope (MH). A multiparametric model of the instrument response function is derived from digitally processed time series of MH matrix data and the hypothesis of muon-flux (MF) intensity distribution is formulated. Formulae for estimating the normalized instrument response function are devised and used in an algorithm for estimating normalized variations of functions in MF intensity. The algorithm was tested on simulated and experimental muon observation data.
