- Descrição
- The muon charge ratio generated from hadronic showers in the earth's atmosphere is obtained accurately in the energy range from a few GeV to several TeV and for some zenith angles between $0^o$ and $89^o$. To solve the hadron diffusion equations we apply the analytical method based on depth-like ordered exponential operator used in our last paper. A comparison among our calculations with the measured ratio and Lipari's analytical calculation is made. Our differential muon fluxes are also compared with data at sea level. The agreement between them is in general very good ($>$ 96\%).
