First 3D reconstruction of a blast furnace using muography
Amélie Cohu, Antoine Chevalier, Oleksandr Nechyporuk +4
The blast furnace (BF) is the fundamental tool used in the iron manufacture. Due to the difficulty of accessing direct measurements of the inner phenomena, we determined the densit…
Muography applied to archaelogy
Theodoros Avgitas, Sabine Elles, Corinne Goy +2
A tomography experiment using muon cosmic rays was conducted on an archaeological site in Greece, a tumulus. This contribution presents issues related to the simulation of the expe…
Atmospheric & geodesic controls on muon rate: a numerical study based on Corsika
Amélie Cohu, Matias Tramontini, Antoine Chevalier +2
Muon rate models play a key role in converting measured data into information on the density distributions of a target. Any given muography measurement, either in transmission or i…
A new versatile method for the reconstruction of scintillator-based muon telescope events
Raphaël Bajou, Marina Rosas-Carbajal, Jacques Marteau
This paper presents a new method to process the data recorded with muon telescopes. We have developed this processing method for the plastic scintillator-based hodoscopes located a…
Middle-atmosphere dynamics observed with a portable muon detector
Matias Tramontini, Marina Rosas-Carbajal, Christophe Nussbaum +2
In the past years, large particle-physics experiments have shown that muon rate variations detected in underground laboratories are sensitive to regional, middle-atmosphere tempera…
Abrupt changes of hydrothermal activity in a lava dome detected by combined seismic and muon monitoring
Y. Le Gonidec, M. Rosas-Carbajal, J. de Bremond d'Ars +5
The recent 2014 eruption of the Ontake volcano in Japan recalled that hydrothermal fields of moderately active volcanoes have an unpredictable and hazardous behavior that may endan…
