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 via…
Improving Muon Scattering Tomography Performance With A Muon Momentum Measurement Scheme
Pei Yu, Ziwen Pan, Jiajia Zhai +10
Muon imaging, especially muon scattering tomography (MST), has recently garnered significant attention. MST measures the magnitude of muon scattering angles inside an object, which…
Transfer learning empowers material Z classification with muon tomography
Haochen Wang, Zhao Zhang, Pei Yu +12
Cosmic-ray muon sources exhibit distinct scattering angle distributions when interacting with materials of different atomic numbers (Z values), facilitating the identification of v…
Probing and Knocking with Muons
Leyun Gao, Cheng-en Liu, Qite Li +6
We propose here a set of new methods involving probing and knocking with muons (PKMu). There is a wealth of rich physics to explore with GeV muon beams. Examples include but not li…
The Feasibility Study of the GeV-Energy Muon Source Based on HIAF
Yu Xu, Xueheng Zhang, Yuhong Yu +13
Generating a mono-energetic, high-energy muon beam using accelerator facilities can be very attractive for many purposes, for example, improving muon tomography currently limited b…
