Περίληψη:
One of the most important data corrections related to the primary data
processing of the neutron monitors is the pressure correction due to the
barometric effect. This effect induces considerable variation in the
counting rate of a cosmic ray detector which is not related to the real
variation of the cosmic rays flux but only to the local atmospheric
pressure of the station. In order to provide the worldwide neutron
monitor network with good quality data, a correction has to be made that
requires the calculation of the barometric coefficient. A new method
that effectively calculates the barometric coefficient for a station
using data of a reference station in order to subtract the primary
variations of cosmic rays is presented in this work. Moreover, this
method is the prototype of an online tool that uses data of the NMDB
stations and calculates the barometric coefficient for any available
station. This tool is also presented.
