Abstract

All three parts of Lab 2: Muon Detection, as well as the raw data from Week 2 Tuesday afternoon, 2/3/26. Part 1: estimate number of muons that should pass through detector in a specific time intervalPart 2: set up detector, oscilloscope, and pulse counter to count actual number of particles passing through detector (and compare to expectation)Part 3: automate data collection to collect large data set for statistical analysis, take data on muon counts AND arrival time.
