A team of chemists and astronomers have made a discovery in the field of astrochemistry: the identification of cyanocoronene, ...

New research published by Michigan State University astrophysicists could help scientists answer a century-old question: ...

The rays — which consist of electrons and their antimatter counterparts, positrons — were observed at energies all the way up to 40 teraelectronvolts (TeV), or 40,000 times the energy of ...

An impression of a waste container being inspected by the Muon Imaging System (Image: University of Glasgow) Muons are high-energy subatomic particles that are created when cosmic rays enter Earth's ...

In fact, by detecting muons you can get an idea of the shape of underground structures, known as muon tomography. "Like X-rays, which can penetrate the body and allow bone imaging, these ...

The Ideon muon imaging solution consists of an advanced ... s particle physics lab), Ideon is a world pioneer in cosmic-ray muon tomography. By transforming muon data into reliable 3D density ...

The Ideon muon imaging solution consists of an advanced suite of hardware ... A spin-off from TRIUMF (Canada’s particle physics lab), Ideon is a world pioneer in cosmic-ray muon tomography. By ...

What is a sensation for archaeologists owes much to muon imaging. Muons are a component of cosmic rays. The charged particles are extremely energetic and penetrate deep into materials. This is why ...

Abstract: Highly penetrating cosmic ray muons constantly shower the earth ... This algorithm borrows much from techniques used in medical imaging, particularly emission tomography, but the statistics ...
