Transfer, processing and distribution of cosmic ray data from Tibet
The YBJ-ARGO experiment uses cosmic ray data collected at the International Cosmic Ray Observatory in Tibet. Because of the observatorys location, transferring those data at a speed of 0.5TB per day is challenging. Furthermore, the stream of raw data needs to be processed in a timely fashion before the resulting, reconstructed data are made available to the physicistsusers. These processes demand large capacity, computing and storage resources. In this paper, we introduce the processes of transfer, processing and distribution of cosmic ray data from Tibet. A working demonstration was presented at the iGrid 2005 workshop.
