Fermilab’s Mu2e experiment has reached a critical assembly stage with its 60-ton cosmic-ray veto system in the detector hall, ...

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 ...

Researchers at the US Department of Energy’s (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory have successfully commissioned a “giant cage” ...

Australia's bid to detect elusive dark matter has taken a major step forward, with new research confirming that cosmic ...

In a muon tomography detector, cosmic-ray muons interact with an object and strike scintillators that emit photons. Wavelength-shifting fibers transmit the photons to photodetectors that digitize the ...

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 ...
