摘要
Results of many-year experimental investigations of neutrons originating from cosmic-ray muons at depths of 25, 316, 570, 3650, and 5200 mwe are presented. Mechanisms of neutron generation by muons underground are outlined qualitatively. Methods of relevant measurements are described in detail, and the resulting properties of neutrons, including their total yield, flux, energy spectrum, multiplicity, and spatial distribution, are reported.
