Description
Cosmic muon flux and its angular distribution have been measured using Resistive Plate
Chamber(RPC) at Kolkata (22° 36' 6.71" N, 88° 25' 7.89" E) at 8 m elevation. Zenith angle was
varied upto 90o in clockwise and 900 in anticlockwise direction with respect to zenith direction. The
similar scenario was also simulated using cosmic flux following cosnθ distribution. Experiment and
simulated result were compared. Details of the measurement technique along with simulation result
will be presented.
