Muon beams can now be created in a device that is the length of a ruler.

A technological breakthrough at Tel Aviv University revolutionizes the world of archaeology: a proof of feasibility for using cosmic radiation detectors to discover underground spaces. The detectors ...

The study revealed that muon scattering measurements lasting for just a few hours can predict nuclear material amounts in ...

The university’s scientists demonstrated that cosmic radiation detectors, which measure muons - subatomic particles produced when cosmic rays collide with Earth’s atmosphere - can reveal hidden voids ...

Laser plasma device could be light enough to be used on the field.

The advance hints at the possibility of portable muon-making devices that could help peer through solid materials for hidden contraband.

New experimental results show particles called muons can be corralled into beams suitable for high-energy collisions, paving the way for new physics. New experimental results show particles called ...

Since the discovery of the Higgs boson in 2012, physicists have made considerable progress in exploring its properties. Does ...

Muons are getting a move on. In a step toward new types of particle physics experiments, scientists cooled and then accelerated a beam of muons. The subatomic particles, heavy cousins of electrons, ...

Muon tomography, or muography, is the practice of using muons generated by cosmic rays interacting with Earth’s atmosphere to image structures on Earth’s surface, akin to producing an X-ray. In lieu ...

The US physics community dreams of building a muon collider. In the spring of 2022, Karri DiPetrillo was gearing up for the final step of the Snowmass particle physics community planning process. It ...

While people gather at Saint Vincent College Monday to watch the solar eclipse, a group of students from the college will be watching for muons. A group of about 15 students from the Unity campus will ...
