Scientific paper

Several experiments have reported observations on possible correlations between the flux of high energy muons and intense solar flares. If confirmed, these observations would have significant implications for the acceleration processes in the heliosphere so as to be able to accelerate protons and other particles to energies of at least tens of GeV. The solar flare of 14 July 2000 offers a unique opportunity for the L3+Cosmics experiment to search for a correlated enhancement in the flux of high energy muons using the L3 precision muon spectrometer, as the flare occurred when the Sun was almost overhead at Geneva. The L3+Cosmics experimental system and its capabilities for observing a directional excess in the flux of high energy muons are presented here along with observations on 14 July 2000 for two energy regions.
