ABOUT THE MAYA MUON GROUP

The University of Texas at Austin Maya Muon Group is building particle detectors that can be deployed underground to track cosmic-ray muons and reconstruct large-scale tomographic images of the overlying ground and structures. While the concept of cosmic-ray muon tomography has been known for a long time, the technology is rarely put to use. The Maya Muon Group has found that underground muon tomography is a practical tool for investigating large structures. Learn More....
