Abstract

The acceptance and the momentum resolution of the OKAYAMA telescope were improved to measure up to the momentum around 100 GeV/c for any directions. We got sufficient muon data in higher momentum than previous presented ones. We report the results of the muon measurements, the muon charge ratio in vertical, 20◦ and 40◦ zenith angles. We discuss charge ratio values in the high momentum region (near 100 GeV/c).
