CRM Geotomography Technologies (CRM) has developed detectors that are able to measure cosmic ray muon particles underground. By measuring the rate at which these particles pass through the detectors, it is possible to reconstruct a three-dimensional map of the density of the earth’s subsurface above the detectors. This technique is called muon tomography. CRM’s detectors […]

Have you ever wondered what is underground below your feet? In this project, the intern will work at CRM Geotomography Technologies on developing a compact detector that will make it possible to construct 3D images of underground structures. The concept is similar to an X-ray, except that naturally occurring particles called atmospheric muons are used […]
