Fig. 6: Schematic representation of the simulated muography setup components.
From: Laboratory-scale muography experiments to estimate density and saturation in porous media
a Conceptual illustration of the experimental setup, where muons originating from a hemisphere source traverse a changing target object before being detected across the detector array. Dashed red lines are coinciding events, while brown dashed lines are unrecorded events. b Simulation model of homogeneous acrylic boxes configurations, demonstrating increasing material thickness. c Simulation model of porous sand cubes configuration, showing variations in saturation levels: 0% saturation (dry sand), ~50% saturation (partially saturated sand), and ~100% saturation (fully saturated sand). The figures are not to scale; however, all simulation components strictly conform to the laboratory’s positional and geometric specifications.
