A muon scattering tomography system based on high spatial resolution scintillating detector
Zheng Liang, Zebo Tang, Xin Li +8
Cosmic ray muon scattering tomography (MST) is an imaging technique that utilizes muon scattering in matter to inspect high-Z materials non-destructively, without requiring an arti…
Development of Small-pitch, Ultra-thin 3D Silicon Sensors at USTC
Kuo Ma, De Zhang, Shengjia He +13
We report on the development of 3D silicon sensors at the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC). The sensor involves columnar electrodes (5 um in diameter) of both d…
Ultrahigh-Energy Gamma-ray Emission Associated with Black Hole-Jet Systems
The LHAASO Collaboration, Zhen Cao, Felix Aharonian +315
Black holes (BH), one of the most intriguing objects in the universe, can manifest themselves through electromagnetic radiation initiated by the accretion flow. Some stellar-mass B…
A Giant Peanut-shaped Ultra-High-Energy Gamma-Ray Emitter Off the Galactic Plane
Zhen Cao, Felix Aharonian, Yunxiang Bai +312
Ultra-high-energy (UHE), exceeding 100 TeV (10^12 electronvolts), γ-rays manifests extreme particle acceleration in astrophysical sources. Recent observations by γ-ray telescopes…
