Abstract

The application of muon tomography method in small scale, for the imaging of a five-centimeter side lead cube, is being examined in the present work. The representation of the object is being achieved by using the transmission muography technique, in which the “free-sky” muon flux is compared to the muon flux measured within the acceptance of the detector. This comparison yields information about the absorption of the muons as they pass through the object under investigation. Also, a projective reconstruction method called “Back Projection” is tested by being applied on the data, providing information about the location of the object and its dimensions. This project has been carried out within the frame of EKATY programme, which aims to the innovative imaging of the subsurface of archaeological sites and the interior of structural elements of monuments in three and four dimensions.
