The MUon RAdiography of Mt. VESuvius (MURAVES) project aims to probe the internal structure of the summit of Mt. Vesuvius. The setup of the MURAVES detector consists of three identical and independent tracking hodoscopes, made of scintillator bars coupled to SiPM. The analyses often rely on simulation based predictions, in our case for a better comparison between the data and different density...

Cosmic rays interacting with the Earth's atmosphere generate cosmogenic neutrons, which subsequently interact with hydrogen in the atmosphere and soil to create epithermal neutrons with energies in the KeV range. The production of these particles is inversely proportional to soil hydrogen content. Cosmic Ray Neutron Sensors (CRNS) use this natural phenomenon to monitor soil moisture levels,...

EcoMug is a Monte Carlo generator of cosmic-ray muons, specifically designed for muon radiography and tomography applications. It is a header-only C++11 library, based on a parametrization of experimental data and, unlike other tools, gives the possibility of generating from different surfaces (plane, cylinder and half-sphere), while keeping the correct angular and momentum distribution of...

Muography solves density distributions of geological or anthropic structures by analyzing muon flux attenuation. Several composite simulation frameworks carry out muography feasibility studies for specific targets. Those methodologies use diverse codes such as CORSIKA, CRY, MUSIC, and GEANT4, increasing computing time and simulation complexity till precision orders higher than needed.
We...

Laser plasma accelerators (LPAs) were proposed 50 years ago as a compact alternative to radio-frequency technology. In an LPA, an intense laser pulse travels through a plasma and excites a plasma wave traveling behind it. LPAs can sustain acceleration gradients beyond 100 GV/m - thousands of times higher than conventional accelerator technology, allowing reducing the size of the machine by...

The MWPC-tracking based MOS (Muography Observation System), consisting of
tracking chambers and lead absorbers has been simulated in a very detailed
way in Geant4, with emphasis on all relevant physics phenomena and
including the effect of the read out electronics. The simulation results
were processed with the tracking algorithm dedicated and used for the
actual detector system.It...

Many muon imaging algorithms require large amounts of simulated data to infer the densities and geometries of the objects under study. A typical muography simulation can be factorized in three different aspects: simulation of the initial muon flux, simulation of the propagation of the muons through matter, and simulation of the detector response. In this work we present how Generative...

Muography is a technique that uses cosmic-ray muons to probe the internal structure of objects. Muons are elementary particles that are naturally produced at high energy by the interaction of cosmic rays with the Earth's atmosphere. Two imaging methods, respectively based on the absorption and scattering of muons, have been developed to exploit cosmic-ray muons in a wide range of applications...

Particle simulation software allows physicists to simulate the interactions of particles with matter at atomic and subatomic levels, providing means to study these interactions in a diverse range of scenarios and environments. Geant4 is one the most prominent toolkit for high-energy physics simulations, which can deal with particle transport through a wide range of materials for most standard...

Muography is increasingly applied in many applications, e.g. volcanology, archaeology, civil engineering, industry, mining, nuclear waste surveys, etc. For such applications, muon telescopes need to be installed in remote locations addressing extreme environmental conditions. To reduce the complexities during transportation and re-installation at the experimental site after the calibration and...
