Using Negative Muons as a Probe for Depth Profiling Silver Roman Coinage

open access: yesHeritage, 2019
Debasement of silver Roman coins is a well-known phenomenon and understanding the quality of ancient silver coinages can provide an idea about the underlying fiscal condition of the issuing states.

Electron-muon ranger: performance in the MICE muon beam [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Instrumentation, 2015
The Muon Ionization Cooling Experiment (MICE) will perform a detailed study of ionization cooling to evaluate the feasibility of the technique. To carry out this program, MICE requires an efficient particle-identification (PID) system to identify muons.

Zero-Point Corrections for Isotropic Coupling Constants for Cyclohexadienyl Radical, C6H7 and C6H6Mu: Beyond the Bond Length Change Approximation

open access: yesMolecules, 2013
Zero-point vibrational level averaging for electron spin resonance (ESR) and muon spin resonance (µSR) hyperfine coupling constants (HFCCs) are computed for H and Mu isotopomers of the cyclohexadienyl radical.

Discovery of new neutron-moderating materials at ISIS Neutron and Muon Source [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2020
In this paper, the possibility of performing a comprehensive neutronic characterization of new materials for neutron moderation at the ISIS Neutron and Muon Source using two of its instruments, VESUVIO and TOSCA, will be discussed.

The Enigma of the Muon and Tau Solved by Emergent Quantum Mechanics?

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2019
This paper addresses the long-standing question of how it may be explained that the three charged leptons (the electron, muon and tau particle) have different masses, despite their conformity in other respects.

Unconventional charge order and superconductivity in kagome-lattice systems as seen by muon-spin rotation

open access: yesnpj Quantum Materials, 2023
Kagome lattices are intriguing and rich platforms for studying the intertwining of topology, electron correlation, and magnetism. These materials have been subject to tremendous experimental and theoretical studies not only due to their exciting physical

Reconstructing muons at a Muon Collider

open access: yes, 2022
A Muon Collider represents a promising proposal for the future of particle accelerators. Lepton colliders, indeed, allow to probe much higher energy scales than hadrons with higher precision; in addition, the usage of muons guarantees a much lower level of synchrotron radiation than the electron case.

Momentum-Dependent Cosmic Ray Muon Computed Tomography Using a Fieldable Muon Spectrometer

open access: yesEnergies, 2022
Cosmic ray muon tomography has been recently explored as a non-destructive technique for monitoring or imaging dense well-shielded objects, classically not achievable with traditional tomographic methods. As a recent example of technology transition from

Muons in IceCube [PDF]

open access: yesNuclear Physics B - Proceedings Supplements, 2009
The IceCube detector allows for the first time a measurement of atmospheric muon and neutrino energy spectra from tens of GeV up to the PeV range. The lepton flux in the highest energy region depends on both the primary cosmic ray composition around the "knee" and the contribution from prompt decays of mostly charmed hadrons produced in air showers. It

Muon-Pair Production by Atmospheric Muons in CosmoALEPH [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2006
Data from a dedicated cosmic ray run of the ALEPH detector were used in a study of muon trident production, i.e., muon pairs produced by muons. Here the overburden and the calorimeters are the target materials while the ALEPH time projection chamber provides the momentum measurements. A theoretical estimate of the muon trident cross section is obtained
