Real-time muon imaging for monitoring and evaluating nuclear waste storage and containment.
Muon imaging provides an advanced, non-invasive solution for the monitoring and management of nuclear waste. Utilizing naturally occurring cosmic ray particles, it generates 3D images of dense materials, enabling detailed analysis of sealed waste containers without compromising their integrity. This technology is highly effective in detecting density anomalies, such as voids, material displacement, or high-Z inclusions, which may indicate structural vulnerabilities or containment breaches.
Traditional methods for inspecting nuclear waste often involve disruptive processes or struggle with shielding materials, but muon imaging overcomes these challenges by penetrating even the thickest barriers. Muon imaging excels at penetrating thick barriers, offering clear differentiation between materials with varying densities. For example, it can precisely locate high-density objects or assess internal degradation within multi-layered shielding and containment systems.
