When you gaze at the mighty Great Pyramid of Giza—sometimes called the Pyramid of Khufu—you’re looking at four and a half millennia of human effort. And in 2017, researchers revealed there’s more than ...
Muon imaging exploits the natural flux of high-energy cosmic-ray muons to probe the internal density structure of large geological and man-made bodies. Two principal approaches are in use: attenuation ...
Muons continually bombard the ground at a known rate and angular distribution. As muons lose energy when passing through matter, their flux is attenuated depending on the integrated density along ...
