A Vertical Deburring Algorithm for Muon Tomography

DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/1764876· OSTI ID:1764876
Los Alamos researchers have developed a technology that improves the quality of images generated by muon tomography techniques,where naturally existing cosmic radiation is used as an energy source for identifying very dense materials. When using muon tomography,blurring can occur on the vertical aspect of images, making it more difficult to interpret data. This vertical de-blurring technology will correct these abnormalities and improve image quality for better evaluation of containers that may have dense matter such as special nuclear materials. This technology has been demonstrated in the laboratory and was evaluated in the field for efficacy.
