Final Year Project
Project Title
Muon Detector
Description
Muon Detector combines all three areas of study; Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, and Physics. The muon is an electron-like particle that travels at almost the speed of light and has an average lifetime of around 2.2us. Muon tomography is building a 3D model of an object using muons as the source, just like an X-Ray, but more powerful and safe. Muons are also being used to study the composition and dynamics of our climate. This project is in collaboration with the physics lab of Lahore University of Management Sciences. I have worked under the supervision of Dr. Sabieh Anwar. LUMS physics lab already has a muon detector, but was a prototype built on old and expensive technology. My task was to engineer it to modern, cheap, and compact silicon-based technology using Filed Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA). This improved the precision, quality, and reliability of the results.
