Abstract
An experiment has been developed for the measurement of the muon charge ratio (ratio of positive to negative muons) in the cosmic ray flux in energy range 0.236-0.242 GeV. The muon charge ratio is found to be 1.35 ± 0.10 with a mean zenith angle of 32° ± 5°. Meanwhile, the distributions of muons in zenith (θ) and azimuth angles have been studied. A cosnθ distribution with n = 1.95 ± 0.13 has been obtained. An asymmetry has been observed in East-West directions because of geomagnetic field.
