ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½ Highlighted In National Research Video
ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½ is prominently featured in a video produced by the National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory of Michigan State University. The video describes the ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½ Cosmic Muon Detector Array and undergraduate research such as viewing the cosmic muon flux mapping over a wide range of the sky.
"Here our interest is finding the kind of fluctuations and trends that occur in the cosmic ray distribution, both from Michigan State and Santa Barbara, simultaneously," says Warren Rogers, interim academic dean as well as professor and chair of the department of physics and engineering at ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½.
The modular detector array represents the first such camera specifically intended for wide-angle muon flux measurements. Students in the ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½ physics department constructed, developed, tested, calibrated the array and continue to conduct research with the array.
