A sealed door hidden inside the Great Pyramid could rewrite the pharaohs’ story, Egypt’s top archaeologist says
A roughly nine-meter corridor sits sealed behind massive stone chevrons on the north face of the Great Pyramid of Giza, ...
ScIDEP built 2 cm-resolution detectors. Models show a void like Khufu’s 2017 “big void” would be visible after ~10⁸ recorded muons.

Muon imaging let researchers peer inside the pyramid without drilling a single hole.
Researchers have mapped a hidden corridor inside Khufu’s Pyramid, the largest of the Giza complex, using nothing more than naturally occurring subatomic particles called muons. The structure, named ...
Secondary cosmic rays constitute a research area focused on particles and electromagnetic radiation produced by the interactions of primary cosmic rays with interstellar matter, planetary atmospheres, ...
In a muon tomography detector, cosmic-ray muons interact with an object and strike scintillators that emit photons. Wavelength-shifting fibers transmit the photons to photodetectors that digitize the ...
