Abstract
A muon telescope equipped with four multi-gap Resistive Plate Chambers of 2 m2 per plane was tested with the muon scattering tomography technique. The telescope was operated during several hours with high atomic number materials located at its center with two detector planes on each side. With an intrinsic efficiency above 98%, spatial resolution around 1 cm and detector planes spaced by 45 cm, it was possible to identify the presence of a 5 cm thick tungsten block in 10 min of acquisition. The results obtained after five hours of acquisition are also presented in this communication.
