A proceedings titled “Development of Japanese-style cosmic-ray muon detector for outreach and education” was published in Proceedings of Science (PoS).
Few citizens or students interested in particle physics and astrophysics have the chance to work with real research equipment such as accelerators, telescopes, and detectors, since these tend to be expensive. Recent technological developments have made it possible to build low-cost detectors, and this proceedings introduces the structure and prototype performance of OSECHI, a low-cost, compact cosmic-ray muon detector, along with examples of its use in outreach.
