SUMMARY:Volcanoes and other things that go boom... applications of muon to
 mography - Dr. Jaap Velthuis (Bristol University)

DESCRIPTION:Muon tomography is a novel imaging technology that allows imag
 ing of the insides of closed objects from a safe distance without introduc
 ing radiation. This makes it an excellent technique to probe the internal 
 structure of volcanoes\, to detect nuclear bombs smuggled in cargo contain
 ers and monitor legacy nuclear waste. In this presentation I will discuss 
 the detectors and analysis techniques and present results on the aforement
 ioned topics.
