Japanese volcanoes visualized with muography.
Philosophical Transactions. Series A, Mathematical, Physical, and Engineering Sciences 2018 December 11
High-energy muons that are generated via the reaction between primary cosmic rays and the Earth's atmosphere can be used to map out the density distribution in shallow parts of a volcano's interior. This new subterranean imaging technique called muography has been applied to three different kinds of volcano dynamics in Japan: lava dome formation, vulcanian explosions and magma convection. Taking all of the observational data together, it appears that muography can serve as a new and alternative volcano observation technique, providing a fresh approach to understanding eruption mechanism. This review describes observational studies in which muography has been used to explore the volcano's interior.This article is part of the Theo Murphy meeting issue 'Cosmic-ray muography'.
