CD-1 Review of Mu2e
June 5-7, 2012

Cosmic Ray Veto

Cosmic ray muons are a known source of potential background for experiments like Mu2e, and must be suppressed in order to achieve the sensitivity required by the experiment. Backgrounds induced by cosmic rays can be defeated by passive shielding, e.g., overburden and thick concrete shielding, and by an active veto detector whose purpose is to detect penetrating cosmic-ray muons.
