Description
Two neutron monitors, an 18-IGY since 1958 and a 3-NM64 since 1986, are in operation at the High Altitude Research Station Jungfraujoch in Switzerland. Both neutron monitors are located close to each other but with a difference in altitude of about 100 m (IGY: 3570 m asl, NM64: 3475 m asl). Due to their locations in a high alpine environment, the two neutron monitors are exposed to high winds and snow accumulation on and around the detector housing. Updated readout electronics are in operation since end of 2022 at both neutron monitors. In this presentation, we give a status overview of the continuous cosmic ray measurements at Jungfraujoch.
