Studio dell’effetto Est-Ovest con i rivelatori ArduSiPM

In this paper we present an experimental didactic approach to the study of cosmic rays with special focus on their interaction with the geomagnetic field of the Earth. The technique presented for the determination of the asymmetry of the flow coming from the east and the one from the west gives the possibility to introduce also concepts of statistics and processing useful data in experimental physics taught in high schools. The use of the ArduSiPM detector and Arduino technology has greatly improved and facilitated the technological and didactic approach.
