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…
Revealing Secondary Particle Signatures in Muography Based on the Point of Closest Approach Algorithm
Rongfeng Zhang, Zibo Qin, Cheng-en Liu +4
This work reinterprets so-called 'noise' in cosmic ray imaging, indicating that the data of reconstructed Points of Closest Approach (PoCA points) outside the volume of interest de…
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…
Probing charged lepton flavor violation in an economical muon on-target experiment
Leyun Gao, Zijian Wang, Cheng-en Liu +5
This work proposes a new yet economical experiment to probe the charged lepton flavor violation (CLFV) process mediated by an extra massive neutron gauge boson beyond th…
