COSMIC RAY MUOGRAPHY

, 2022
Muography is a term recently introduced to embrace different techniques that profit from the penetration capability of the muon component of cosmic rays to investigate the interior of large and otherwise inaccessible structures.

Igneous processes in the small bodies of the Solar System II: Small satellites and dwarf planets [PDF]

iScience
Summary: Evidence of hot and cold igneous processes has been reported in small satellites and dwarf planets of the Solar System. Olivine and pyroxenes were detected in the spectral bands of both small satellites and dwarf planets.

Civil and Industrial Applications of Muography

, 2023
Starting from the mid-1950s, techniques based on the absorption or scattering of cosmic ray (CR) muons, collectively referred to as muography, have been applied beyond the research domain only.

3D Muography for the Search of Hidden Cavities. [PDF]

Sci Rep, 2019
Muography (or muon radiography) is a technique that exploits the penetration capability of muons, elementary particles similar to electrons but with a mass about 200 times larger.
