| Zusammenfassung |
| High-energy (above a few hundred GeV) atmospheric muons are a natural probe
for geophysical studies. They can travel through kilometres of rock allowing
for a radiography of the density distribution within large structures, like
mountains or volcanoes. A collaboration between volcanologists, astroparticle
and particle physicists, Tomuvol was formed in 2009 to study
tomographic muon imaging of volcanoes with high-resolution, large-scale
tracking detectors. We report on two campaigns of measurements at the flank
of the Puy de Dôme using glass resistive plate chambers (GRPCs) developed
for particle physics, within the CALICE collaboration. |
