Predicting Neutron Production from Cosmic-ray Muons
Fast neutrons from cosmic-ray muons are an important background to underground low energy experiments. The estimate of such background is often hampered by the difficulty of measuring and calculating neutron production with sufficient accuracy. Indeed substantial disagreement exists between the different analytical calculations performed so far, while data reported by different experiments is n...
متن کاملCosmic Ray Muons and the Muon Lifetime
Four scintillation paddles and coincidence techniques are used to determine the overall flux and angular distribution of cosmic ray muons. The muon lifetime is measured using rare events where, after passage of a muon into a scintillator is detected, its decay is also detected a short time later. The distribution of the decay times provides information about the average muon lifetime. Statistic...
متن کاملχ based alignment using cosmic muons
The CLEO-c data sample is dominated should find more precise number by cosmic muons that triggered the detector. Further, cosmic muons have a hard momentum spectra as well as containing tracks that are not going through the origin. Hence, the sample of cosmic rays would provide a valuable sample of tracks for doing alignment. This note describes such an attempt. Besides using cosmic muons a χ m...
متن کاملHadronic Interactions and TeV Muons in Cosmic Ray Cascades
In view of the interpretation of data collected by large deep underground experiments in terms of primary Cosmic Ray physics, this work is focused on the study of the production of of TeV muons in Extensive Air Showers. The review tries to point out those features of hadronic interactions that mostly affect the production of the high energy muons. A few different Monte Carlo codes are compared,...
متن کاملStudying High pT Muons in Cosmic-Ray Air Showers
Most cosmic-ray air shower arrays have focused on detecting electromagnetic shower particles and low energy muons. A few groups (most notably MACRO + EASTOP and SPASE + AMANDA) have studied the high energy muon component of showers. However, these experiments had small solid angles, and did not study muons far from the core. The IceTop + IceCube combination, with its 1 km muon detection area ca...
