Feasibility study of the GeV-energy muon source based on the High Intensity Heavy-Ion Accelerator Facility

Physical Review Accelerators and Beams
Generating a monoenergetic, high-energy muon beam using accelerator facilities can be very attractive for many purposes, for example, improving muon tomography currently limited by the low flux and wide energy spread of cosmic ray muons, and searching ...

Three‐dimensional density structure of La Soufrière de Guadeloupe lava dome from simultaneous muon radiographies and gravity data

Geophysical Research Letters, 2017
Muon imaging has recently emerged as a powerful method to complement standard geophysical tools in the understanding of the Earth's subsurface. Muon measurements yield a “radiography” of the average density along the muon path, allowing to image large ...

Muon Tomography of Subsurface Structures in the Nagórzyce Cave System

Applied Sciences
This paper presents an application of cosmic-ray muon tomography for investigating subsurface structures in the Nagórzyce Cave system in Poland. Long-term measurements of a near-horizontal muon flux were carried out using four low-cost CREDO-Maze ...

Quantum state tomography with muons

Entanglement is a fundamental pillar of quantum mechanics. Probing quantum entanglement and testing Bell inequality with muons can be a significant leap forward, as muon is arguably the only massive elementary particle that can be manipulated and detected over a wide range of energies, e.g., from approximately 0.3 to $10^2$ GeV, corresponding to ...

TomOpt: differential optimisation for task- and constraint-aware design of particle detectors in the context of muon tomography

Machine Learning: Science and Technology
We describe a software package, TomOpt, developed to optimise the geometrical layout and specifications of detectors designed for tomography by scattering of cosmic-ray muons.
