Production of lepton-flavor-violating scalars through resonant positive-muon annihilation on atomic electrons
Jinhong Shen, Youpeng Wu, Zijian Wang +10
We investigate an invisible lepton-flavor-violating scalar with exclusive couplings and study its resonant production via in fixed-target experiments. Si…
The muon Moonshot: Moon subsurface tomography with upward-going muons
Zimo Hu, Leyun Gao, Zhengyun You +6
We propose a novel muon Moonshot concept for lunar subsurface tomography based on upward-going muons originated from the lunar regolith. Unlike the Earth, the Moon lacks an atmosph…
Nuisance-Aware Muon Tomography
Zhizheng Zhao, Changhao Qin, Rongfeng Zhang +5
Cosmic-ray muon scattering tomography can image dense, shielded, or inaccessible objects without an artificial radiation source. In a compact magnet-free tracker, however, each acc…
Probing Cosmic Ray Composition and Muon-philic Dark Matter via Muon Tomography
Cheng-en Liu, Rongfeng Zhang, Zijian Wang +11
This work presents a novel cosmic-ray scattering experiment employing a Resistive Plate Chambers (RPC) muon tomography system. By introducing the scattering angle between incident…
Projection-shifted particle-flow imaging with cosmic-ray muons
Zibo Qin, Rongfeng Zhang, Pei Yu +6
Cosmic-ray muons are natural probes for non-destructive imaging, but reaching sub-millimetre resolution with realistic exposure times has long been hindered by a fundamental limita…
Search for light Dark Sectors with GeV Muon Beams
Zijian Wang, Leyun Gao, Zhuo Chen +10
Sub-GeV light dark matter often requires new light mediators, such as a dark boson in the gauge theory. We study the search potential for such a boson v…
