Abstract
Abstract: We present a new three-dimensional Monte-Carlo code MUSIC (MUon SImulation Code) for muon propagation through the rock. All processes of muon interaction with matter with high energy loss (including the knock-on electron production) are treated as stochastic processes. The angular deviation and lateral displacement of muons due to multiple scattering, as well as bremsstrahlung, pair production and inelastic scattering are taken into account. The code has been applied to obtain the energy distribution and angular and lateral deviations of single muons at different depths underground. The muon multiplicity distributions obtained with MUSIC and CORSIKA (Extensive Air Shower simulation code) are also presented. We discuss the systematic uncertainties of the results due to different muon bremsstrahlung cross-sections.

All processes of muon interaction with matter with high energy loss (including the knock-on electron production) are treated as stochastic processes. The angular deviation and lateral displacement of muons due to multiple scattering, as well as bremsstrahlung, pair production and inelastic scattering are taken into account. The code has been applied to obtain the energy distribution and angular and lateral deviations of single muons at different depths underground. The muon multiplicity distributions obtained with MUSIC and CORSIKA (Extensive Air Shower simulation code) are also presented. We discuss the systematic uncertainties of the results due to different muon bremsstrahlung cross-sections.</abstract><subject><genre>Keywords</genre><topic>High energy muons</topic><topic>Muons underground</topic><topic>Monte Carlo methods</topic><topic>Interaction of particles with matter</topic></subject><relatedItem type="host"><titleInfo><title>Astroparticle Physics</title></titleInfo><titleInfo type="abbreviated"><title>ASTPHY</title></titleInfo><genre type="journal" authority="ISTEX" authorityURI="https://publication-type.data.istex.fr" valueURI="https://publication-type.data.istex.fr/ark:/67375/JMC-0GLKJH51-B">journal</genre><originInfo><publisher>ELSEVIER</publisher><dateIssued encoding="w3cdtf">1997</dateIssued></originInfo><identifier type="ISSN">0927-6505</identifier><identifier type="PII">S0927-6505(00)X0009-6</identifier><part><date>1997</date><detail type="volume"><number>7</number><caption>vol.</caption></detail><detail type="issue"><number>4</number><caption>no.</caption></detail><extent unit="issue-pages"><start>297</start><end>378</end></extent><extent unit="pages"><start>357</start><end>368</end></extent></part></relatedItem><identifier type="istex">DE55DACB145A5CF5EF8F38C4B19AC01CB934AC9A</identifier><identifier type="ark">ark:/67375/6H6-7L1G1SHW-M</identifier><identifier type="DOI">10.1016/S0927-6505(97)00035-2</identifier><identifier type="PII">S0927-6505(97)00035-2</identifier><recordInfo><recordContentSource authority="ISTEX" authorityURI="https://loaded-corpus.data.istex.fr" valueURI="https://loaded-corpus.data.istex.fr/ark:/67375/XBH-HKKZVM7B-M">elsevier</recordContentSource></recordInfo></mods><json:item><extension>json</extension><original>false</original><mimetype>application/json</mimetype><uri>https://api.istex.fr/ark:/67375/6H6-7L1G1SHW-M/record.json</uri></json:item></metadata><serie></serie></istex></record>Pour manipuler ce document sous Unix (Dilib)
