What’s a muon? The Earth is under constant bombardment ... The working components of the detector consist of a plastic scintillator, a silicon photomultiplier (SiPM), a main circuit board ...

This research on the muon veto detector system for the TAO ... More information: Guang Luo et al, Performance of plastic scintillator modules for top veto tracker at Taishan Antineutrino ...

This oil/scintillator mixture allowed the detection ... the apparent deficit of solar electron-neutrinos and atmospheric muon-neutrinos. The solar and atmospheric experiments have been confirmed ...

Comprising 160 plastic scintillator (PS) modules with optimized wavelength shifting fiber (WLS-fiber) arrangements and silicon photomultipliers, the system offers enhanced light yield and muon ...

Muon detectors capture tracks of both negatively ... The detectors’ measurements were supplemented with plastic scintillator detectors inside the Queen’s Chamber, and gas-based detectors ...

To get a muograph of the pyramid, the researchers collected muon traces using nuclear emulsion films and scintillator hodoscopes set up in the queen's chamber at the base of the pyramid ...

The muon antineutrinos in the beam are produced at Fermilab ... Electron neutrinos and antineutrinos are detected when they very occasionally collide with an atom in a liquid scintillator, which ...

There, members of the Muon g–2 (pronounced as “g minus 2”) Collaboration have been carefully measuring a peculiar particle known as a muon. Last week, they released their updated results ...
