Novel approach to imaging by cosmic-ray muons
Cosmic-ray muons can be used for imaging of large structures, or high-density objects with high atomic number. The first task can be performed by measurement of muon absorption within very thick material layers, while the second approach is based on muon multiple scattering. However, the muon imaging of small structures with low atomic number and density was not yet solved appropriately. Here w...
متن کاملDensity imaging of volcanos with atmospheric muons
Their long range in matter renders high-energy atmospheric muons a unique probe for geophysical explorations, permitting the cartography of density distributions which can reveal spatial and possibly also temporal variations in extended geological structures. A Collaboration between volcanologists and (astro-)particle physicists, Tomuvol, was formed in 2009 to study tomographic muon imaging of ...
متن کاملNeutrino-Induced Upward-going Muons at MACRO
Upward-going muon events in MACRO allow measurement of the ux in the range E 10 to 100 GeV. The ratio of total observed to expected events is 0:74 0:036stat 0:046sys 0:13theor, which when combined with the observed zenith angle distribution ( 1:0 cos 0:1) agrees with the no-oscillation model to no better than 0.1%. The data are in signi cantly greater agreement with the $ vacuum oscillation mod...
متن کاملNeutrino-induced muons observed with MINOS
The Main Injector Neutrino Oscillation Search (MINOS) experiment’s Far Detector has been operational since July 2003, taking cosmic ray and atmospheric neutrino data from its location in the Soudan Mine Underground Lab. Numerous neutrino-induced muons have been observed. The detector’s magnetic field allows the first determination by a large underground detector of muon charge and thus neutrino...
متن کاملPreclinical modeling and multimodality imaging of chronic myocardial infarction in minipigs induced by novel interventional embolization technique
BACKGROUND This study was designed to establish a chronic myocardial infarction (MI) model in minipigs with a novel coronary sequential balloons-sponge embolism technique. METHODS Eighteen healthy minipigs (25-30 kg) were randomly divided into three groups for left anterior descending artery (LAD) occlusion: conventional balloon occlusion group (BO group, temporary balloon occlusion for 60 mi...
