Celebrating 70 Years of Muon Tomography
This year, the global scientific and technological community marks the 70th anniversary of the first application of Muon Tomography (MT). The journey began on July 1, 1955, marking the start of a revolution that turned naturally occurring cosmic particles into powerful, non-destructive imaging tools. 1955: The Birth of a New Science The concept of using cosmic rays to evaluate matter began two decades after the muon's discovery. The foundation of muon tomography was laid in
