Muon Density Measurements with the KASCADE Central Detector
Frequency distributions of local muon densities in high-energy extensive air-showers (EAS) are presented as signature of the primary cosmic ray energy spectrum in the knee region. Together with the gross shower variables like shower core position, angle of incidence, and the shower sizes, the KASCADE experiment is able to measure local muon densities for two different muon energy thresholds. Th...
متن کاملA Detector for Muon Tomography
This report describes the conceptual design of a particle detector that could be deployed underground for tracking cosmic-ray muons to enable tomographic reconstruction of the overlying ground and structures. The concept of cosmic-ray muon tomography has been known for a long time but seldom used in practice since the first demonstration. Developments in technology and methods of particle detec...
متن کاملMuon simulations based on a realistic CBM muon detector system∗
The actual design of the muon detector system consists of 6 hadron absorber layers (iron plates of thickness 20, 20, 20, 30, 35, 100 cm) and 15-18 gaseous tracking chambers located in triplets behind each iron slab. The geometry of the muon system is presented in figure 1: the side view of the full system (top), the side wiew of one gap with detector layers (bottom left), and the side view of o...

متن کاملUltraviolet antireflection coatings for use in silicon detector design.
We report on the development of coatings for a charged-coupled device (CCD) detector optimized for use in a fixed dispersion UV spectrograph. Because of the rapidly changing index of refraction of Si, single layer broadband antireflection (AR) coatings are not suitable to increase quantum efficiency at all wavelengths of interest. Instead, we describe a creative solution that provides excellent...
