Description
Cosmic rays are an abundant, and not complete known, natural source of ionizing and photonizing radiation from outer space, where multiple techniques have been invented to detect and study them. In order to detect and study them, we planned, designed and simulated a detection system consisting of two identical detectors based on cylindrical transparent acrylic rods of $20\, cm$ high and $10.16\, cm$ in diameter. We report on the technical details of this cosmic ray detector and some preliminary simulation results obtained using CERN GEANT4.
