Correlations between Background Radiation inside a Multilayer Interleaving Structure, Geomagnetic Activity, and Cosmic Radiation: A Fourth Order Cumulant-based Correlation Analysis

preprint2020arXivOpen access

Abstract

In this work, we analyzed time-series of background radiation inside a multilayer interleaving structure, geomagnetic activity and cosmic-ray activity using the Pearson correlation coefficient and a new correlation measure based on the one-dimensional component of the fourth order cumulant. The new method is proposed based on the fact that the cumulant of a random process is zero if it is of Gaussian nature. The results show that this methodology is useful for detecting correlations between the analyzed variables.
