Simulations of neutrino and muon interaction in matter for geological structures radiography [PDF]
Neutrino and muon radiography seems to provide a method complementary to the more conventional seismic studies for getting information on the very deep geological structures. Here we describe the status of the simulations of neutrino and muon interaction

Possible application of compact electronics for multilayer muon high-speed radiography to volcanic cones [PDF]
Compact data-taking electronics were developed for high-speed multilayer muon radiography in order to minimize operation failure rates. By requiring a linear trajectory within the position sensitive detectors (PSDs), the background (BG) events produced ...

Air shower simulation for background estimation in muon tomography of volcanoes [PDF]
One of the main sources of background for the radiography of volcanoes using atmospheric muons comes from the accidental coincidences produced in the muon telescopes by charged particles belonging to the air shower generated by the primary cosmic ray ...

Pressurized gases reduce interfacial tension (IFT) at the gas‐liquid interfaces, their influence on the liquid–liquid interfaces remains unclear. For model compounds methane, water, and p‐xylene, neutron imaging observation of pressurized three‐phase systems is combined with Molecular Dynamics simulations.

Cosmic-Ray Tomography for Border Security
A key task for customs workers is the interception of hazardous, illegal and counterfeit items in order to protect the health and safety of citizens. However, it is estimated that only a small fraction of cargo is inspected and an even smaller fraction ...

The MURAVES Experiment: A Study of the Vesuvius Great Cone with Muon Radiography
The MURAVES experiment aims at the muographic imaging of the internal structure of the summit of Mt.Vesuvius, exploiting muons produced by cosmic rays. Though presently quiescent, the volcano carries adramatic hazard in its highly populated surroundings.
