[1] Muon tomography measures the flux of cosmic muons crossing geological bodies to determine their density. The telescopes used to perform measurements are exposed to noise fluxes with high intensities relative to the tiny flux of interest. We give

Time-of-flight (TOF) techniques are standard techniques in high energy physics to determine particles’ propagation directions. Since particle velocities are generally close to c, the speed of light, and detector typical dimensions at the metre leve
