Scientists have a problem with cosmic rays—they produce too many muons at the Earth's surface. Cascades of muons are ...

A little over a year ago we’d written about a sub $100 muon detector that MIT doctoral candidate [Spencer Axani] and a few others had put together. At the time there was little more than a paper ...

[Sebastian Tomczak] was borrowing a homeade muon detector from his friend, and managed to hook it up to his computer through an Arduino. The detector itself uses 3 fluorescent tubes to detect ...

The devil is in the 10th digit. The experimental world average for aμ currently stands more than 5σ above the Standard Model ...

Some of the ancient history underneath Jerusalem is easily accessible.

Particle physicists have been looking for so-called "sterile neutrinos" for a few decades now. They are a hypothesized ...

New technology is optimizing productivity and reducing risk Cave-based mining is increasing worldwide as a way of extending ...

Using muon spin rotation at the Swiss Muon Source SmS, researchers at the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) have discovered that a quantum phenomenon known as time-reversal symmetry breaking occurs at the ...

A science antenna developed with support from NASA's Earth Science Technology Office (ESTO) is now in low-Earth orbit aboard ...

Coordinated by editors Paola Scampoli and Akitaka Ariga, Cosmic Ray Muography provides an invaluable snapshot of a booming ...
