A generalized muon trajectory estimation algorithm with energy loss for application to muon tomography [PDF]

Journal of Applied Physics, 2018
This work presents a generalized muon trajectory estimation algorithm to estimate the path of a muon in either uniform or nonuniform media. The use of cosmic ray muons in nuclear nonproliferation and safeguard verification applications has recently gained attention due to the non-intrusive and passive nature of the inspection, penetrating capabilities,

Compactly supported detail field for high quality neural implicit surfaces

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Neural implicit surfaces are a powerful tool for encoding a surface as the zero level set of a neural function. Trained using gradient‐descent based optimizers, these methods however suffer from a low‐frequency bias that prevents them to fit fine details of the surface.

Design and Simulation of a Muon Detector Using Wavelength-Shifting Fiber Readouts for Border Security

Instruments
Cosmic ray muon tomography is a promising method for the non-invasive inspection of shipping containers and trucks. It leverages the highly penetrating cosmic muons and their interactions with various materials to generate three-dimensional images of ...

The Application of Muon Tomography to Carbon Storage Monitoring

Proceedings, 2014
Post-injection monitoring of stored super-critical carbon dioxide will play a crucial role in the carbon capture and storage (CCS) industry. To date a number of monitoring methods have been proposed such as repeat seismic surveys. The application of a technique known as muon tomography is discussed.

Evaluating integrative strategies for incorporating phenotypic features in spatial transcriptomics

Journal of Microscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract The key advantage of spatial transcriptomics (ST) technologies lies in the spatial domain: these techniques not only offer an unprecedented opportunity to interrogate intact biological samples in a spatially informed manner, but also set the stage for integration with other imaging‐based modalities.

Application of muon tomography in bauxite exploration

Journal of Applied Physics
Muon-based imaging, utilizing radiographic and tomographic techniques, is a powerful tool for detecting subsurface structures based on density contrasts. Unlike conventional geophysical methods, which are influenced by subsurface material properties, muography maps density along nearly straight muon paths, enabling high-resolution imaging even of small

Muon tomography: Plans for observations in the Lesser Antilles

Earth, Planets and Space, 2010
The application of muon tomography to monitor and image the internal structure of volcanoes in the Lesser Antilles is discussed. Particular focus is directed towards the three volcanoes that fall under the responsibility of the Institut de Physique du Globe of Paris, namely La Montagne Pelee in Martinique, La Soufriere in Guadeloupe, and the Soufriere ...

Powers That Be: An Adventure in Metaphysics

Philosophical Investigations, Volume 49, Issue 4, Page 343-348, October 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper is an investigation into the increasingly popular trend amongst philosophers on the metaphysics of powers, exemplified by the statement: ‘To be real is to possess a power to affect (or to be affected by) other things’. First, I briefly trace the history of this idea (from the Eleatic dialectic of ancient times to present day quantum
