Neutron monitors have been the premier ground-based instruments for monitoring the near-Earth cosmic ray flux for more than 70 years. It is essential to continue with such measurements in order to extend this unique long-term time series. Moreover, with the recent interest of the aviation industry to space weather effects, and especially the radiation risk posed by solar energetic particles and galactic cosmic rays, it is vital to extend the current neutron monitor network in order to provide near-real-time measurements to the space weather community. In this paper we discuss a new electronics system that was retrofitted to the SANAE neutron monitor in Antarctica. We present initial results from this system, featuring very high temporal resolution and discuss the techniques applied to the data analysis. Based on these successful upgrades, we are confident that this system can be used to rejuvenate the aligning neutron monitor network, and even possibly to revive some of the decommissioned instruments.

更新的 SANAE 中子监测器

70 多年来,中子监测器一直是监测近地宇宙射线通量的首要地面仪器。为了扩展这一独特的长期时间序列,必须继续进行此类测量。此外,随着航空业最近对空间天气影响的兴趣,尤其是太阳高能粒子和银河宇宙射线造成的辐射风险,扩展当前的中子监测网络以提供近实时测量至关重要到空间天气社区。在本文中,我们讨论了一种改装到南极洲 SANAE 中子监测器的新电子系统。我们展示了该系统的初步结果,具有非常高的时间分辨率,并讨论了应用于数据分析的技术。基于这些成功的升级,
