文摘

•: A compact system for real time displaying of muon tracks is presented.
•: The system is based on scintillating plates composed of doped polystyrene bars.
•: By using SiPMs and corresponding LEDs the muon paths can be visualized.
•: The purpose of this system is to introduce the public to sub-nuclear particles.
