3. I.I.S. A. Volta in E.E.E. Project
In Lodi we currently have two detectors: LODI-01 at Liceo G. Gandini and LODI-02 in our institute. By the end of this month we will start the data acquisition of LODI-03 (still in our institute).

9. Next week high voltages of LODI-03 will be swichted on!
Lodi EEE Center
The distances between the three detectors are less than 200 meters. This feature makes the EEE center of Lodi a unique one in Italy.
Next week high voltages of LODI-03 will be swichted on!

14. Trend of average rate values with varying atmospheric pressure
The represented plots show the trend of the rate’s average values associated with the corresponding value of atmospheric pressure, and they present a comparable trend inclination.
