The Extreme Energy Events project (EEE) is aimed to study Extensive Air Showers (EAS) from primary cosmic rays of more than 10(18) eV energy detecting the ground secondary muon component using an array of telescopes with high spatial and time resolution. The second goal of the EEE project is to involve High School teachers and students in this advanced research work and to initiate them in scientific culture: to reach both purposes the telescopes are located inside High School buildings and the detector construction, assembling and monitoring - together with data taking and analysis - are done by researchers from scientific institutions in close collaboration with them.

Looking at the sub-TeV sky with cosmic muons detected in the EEE MRPC telescopes
/ Abbrescia, M (Enrico Fermi Ctr., Rome ; Bari U. ; INFN, Bari) ; Avanzini, C (Enrico Fermi Ctr., Rome ; INFN, Pisa ; Pisa U.) ; Baldini, L (Enrico Fermi Ctr., Rome ; INFN, Pisa ; Pisa U.) ; Baldini Ferroli, R (Enrico Fermi Ctr., Rome ; Frascati) ; Batignani, G (Enrico Fermi Ctr., Rome ; INFN, Pisa ; Pisa U.) ; Bencivenni, G (Frascati) ; Bossini, E (Enrico Fermi Ctr., Rome ; INFN, Siena ; Siena U.) ; Bressan, E (Enrico Fermi Ctr., Rome ; Bologna U. ; INFN, Bologna) ; Chiavassa, A (INFN, Turin ; Turin U.) ; Cicalo, C (Enrico Fermi Ctr., Rome ; Cagliari U. ; INFN, Cagliari) et al.
Distributions of secondary cosmic muons were measured by the Multigap Resistive Plate Chambers (MRPC) telescopes of the Extreme Energy Events (EEE) Project, spanning a large angular and temporal acceptance through its sparse sites, to test the possibility to search for any anomaly over long runs. After correcting for the time exposure and geometrical acceptance of the telescopes, data were transformed into equatorial coordinates, and equatorial sky maps were obtained from different sites on a preliminary dataset of 110M events in the energy range at sub-TeV scale..

Time correlated events due to cosmic muons from extensive air showers have been detected by means of telescope pairs of the EEE (Extreme Energy Events) Project array. The coincidence rate, properly normalized for detector acceptance, efficiency and altitude location, has been extracted as a function of the relative distance between the telescopes. [...]

The Gas Gain Monitoring (GGM) system of the Resistive Plate Chamber (RPC) muon detector in the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) experiment provides fast and accurate determination of the stability in the working point conditions due to gas mixture changes in the closed loop recirculation system. In 2011 the GGM began to operate using a feedback algorithm to control the applied voltage, in order to keep the GGM response insensitive to environmental temperature and atmospheric pressure variations.
