The variations of secondary cosmic rays during thunderstorm periods are under study at the Baksan Neutrino Observatory for many years. Large-area groups of scintillation detectors of the Carpet air shower array operate in a single-particle mode measuring the count rates of the soft component cosmic rays (electrons, positrons and gamma rays in the energy range 10-30 MeV) and of muons with...

The Baksan EAS array is located in the North Caucasus region near Mount Elbrus at an altitude of 1700 m above see level. The basic part of the array is a ground level detector called the Carpet (200 m^2), surrounded by six outdoor huts with 9 m^2 of scintillation counters in each. The array is permanently modernized and extended. Its previous Carpet-2 configuration included an underground muon...

The Borexino detector at Gran Sasso has now accumulated over ten years of continuous data which represent a magnificent opportunity to study the cosmic muon flux at a deep underground location. We present here a precision measurement of the flux and of the expected seasonal modulation. We present the correlation with the atmospheric temperature variations from global atmospheric models. We...

We present, for the first time, high-multiplicity data collected with a segmented scintillator array of the cosmic-ray experiment EMMA (Experiment with Multi Muon Array). The data were acquired over the period of 450 days using 800 plastic scintillator pixels probing the fiducial area of ~100 m2. The results are interpreted in terms of CORSIKA simulations. Several events with densities in...

The precise knowledge of the hadronic interaction is one of keys for a proper understanding of properties of high energy cosmic-rays. Large Hadron Collider (LHC) provides unique opportunities for us to study hadronic interactions at the very high collision energy equivalent to $10^{17}$ eV cosmic-ray interactions. The LHC forward (LHCf) experiment aims to have measurements of neutral...

The primary goal of the ANTARES telescope is the search for astrophysical neutrinos in the TeV-PeV range. ANTARES has searched for neutrino sources in the Southern Sky at TeV energies and set constraints on the origin of the cosmic neutrino flux discovered by IceCube. ANTARES has actively developed a manifold multi-messenger program, both in real time and offline. Of particular interest the...
