Due to government shutdown restrictions currently in place in the US, the researchers who headed up this study have not been able to comment on their work Laser plasma acceleration (LPA) may be used ...

Energetic particles that pop briefly into existence when cosmic rays hit Earth’s atmosphere could help assess hidden damage to buildings in Ukraine after the war ends. These particles — known as muons ...

In a muon tomography detector, cosmic-ray muons interact with an object and strike scintillators that emit photons. Wavelength-shifting fibers transmit the photons to photodetectors that digitize the ...

Natalie Preble's research on using muon telescopes for particle physics expands accessibility for smaller institutions.
