Abstract

Abstract A ground-level enhancement (GLE) event was observed by neutron detectors designed for the registration of extensive air showers (EASs) at the Experimental Complex (EC) NEVOD. The potential for that was unlocked by a recent modernization of the experimental setup that included implementation of additional channels for measuring neutron flux variation. At 10:15 UT on 2025 November 11, a sudden and significant increase in the neutron flux was detected by two installations: PRISMA-36 and URAN arrays. For the first time, a GLE has been recorded using a set of neutron detectors oriented at the EAS studies. We present the measured EC NEVOD data and the results of the preliminary analysis of the observed GLE.
