Detection of cavities in a salt mine with cosmic muons: expected results and first data [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Renewable energy dependence on variable weather creates mismatches with energy demand. One possible solution is to produce and store green hydrogen by energy surpluses for later use.

A new cylindrical detector for borehole muon radiography [PDF]

Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research Section A: Accelerators, Spectrometers, Detectors and Associated Equipment, 2023
Muons of cosmic origin have a great capability to penetrate through matter. This property is exploited in muon radiography, also known as muography, a technique which allows to highlight the presence of discontinuities of the mass density in the subsoil such as cavities, tunnels or rock masses. A detector of cylindrical geometry, optimized for borehole

Feasibility Study of a New Cherenkov Detector for Improving Volcano Muography [PDF]

Sensors, 2019
Muography is an expanding technique for internal structure investigation of large volume object, such as pyramids, volcanoes and also underground cavities. It is based on the attenuation of muon flux through the target in a way similar to the attenuation

Applications of muon absorption radiography to the fields of archaeology and civil engineering. [PDF]

Philos Trans A Math Phys Eng Sci, 2018
Muon radiography, also known as muography, is an imaging technique that provides information on the mass density distribution inside large objects. Muons are naturally produced in the interactions of cosmic rays in the Earth's atmosphere. The physical process exploited by muography is the attenuation of the muon flux, that depends on the ...

Bedrock sculpting under an active alpine glacier revealed from cosmic-ray muon radiography. [PDF]

Sci Rep, 2019
Mountain glaciers form landscapes with U-shaped valleys, roche moutonées and overdeepenings through bedrock erosion. However, little evidence for active glacial carving has been provided particularly for areas above the Equilibrium Line Altitude (ELA ...

Muon radiography applied to volcanoes imaging: the MURAVES experiment at Mt. Vesuvius [PDF]

, 2020
: Muon radiography is a technique based on the measurement of absorption profiles of muons as they pass through matter. This measurement allows to obtain an image of the inner structure of large volume objects and is suitable to be applied in several ...
