Don't forget the muons!

If you've any interest, as no doubt many amateur radio enthusiasts do, in the physics of the universe, then you can do a lot worse than get involved with the MuonPi project, which I highlighed first at the end of last year.

At this page, you can see coincidental muon detections occurring in real time.  It's amazing that, using just a Raspberry Pi and GNSS data, timing resolutions of 22 microseconds are consistently realised.

Here's my dector running under the wardrobe; the flashing blue light at bottom left is the muons being detected by the plastic scintillator slab at top:

 

So why not drop the team an e-mail, and book yourself a kit?  Getting it all going is pretty straightforward.
