Abstract
Cosmic Ray (CR) is high-energy charged particles that reach the earth from space. CR detection methods and studies have been progressing rapidly since the beginning of the 20th century. One of these methods is the use of digital cameras with Charge Coupled Device (CCD) and Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS) sensors. Mobile phone cameras or webcams offer an easily using and economical measurement system for CR measurement. The sensors are exposed to CR during a long exposure. CRs leave traces in the background. Cosmic particle tracks are then separated from the background noise and can be classified. Making the traces of the particles visible is important for understanding the subject. In this context, traces of particles such as electrons, muons, and alphas can be seen with the cloud chamber experiments. Help of sensor technology and cameras have developed in recent years, CR traces can be easily detected so that it can be seen. There are many software and international projects that detect CR using CMOS sensors in cell phone cameras. In this study, related projects, programs and studies were researched; CR traces that we captured with the help of Cosmic-Ray Extremely Distributed Observatory (CREDO) and Cosmic Ray Finder (CRF) software with web cam and a mobile phone cam CMOS sensor are presented. Links have been made about astrophysical events coinciding with previously detected particle images.
