论文摘要
Vesuvius（Muraves）项目的MUON射线照相旨在研究意大利那不勒斯附近的活跃而危险的火山维苏威山的圆锥体。为了研究实验约束的影响并与实际观察结果进行比较，必须进行详细的蒙特卡洛模拟框架。我们的Monte Carlo设置结合了各种蒙特卡洛计划，这些程序解决了宇宙元模拟的不同方面，从地球上层大气中的穆恩产生到检测器的响应，包括与火山物质的相互作用。我们将详细说明我们的技术选择的理由，包括速度和准确性之间的权衡，以及所学的教训，这对于MUON射线照相术中的类似用例具有一般性的兴趣。
The MUon RAdiography of VESuvius (MURAVES) project aims at the study of the summital cone of Mt. Vesuvius, an active and hazardous volcano near Naples, Italy. A detailed Monte Carlo simulation framework is necessary in order to investigate the effects of the experimental constraints and to perform comparisons with the actual observations. Our Monte Carlo setup combines a variety of Monte Carlo programs that address different aspects of cosmic muon simulation, from muon generation in the Earth's upper atmosphere to the response of the detector, including the interactions with the material of the volcano. We will elaborate on the rationale for our technical choices, including trade-off between speed and accuracy, and on the lessons learned, which are of general interest for similar use cases in muon radiography.
