Simulations of Muon Flux in Slanic Salt Mine
Geant4 simulation package was used to simulate muon fluxes at different locations, the floor of UNIREA mine and two levels of CANTACUZINO mine, of Slanic Prahova site in Romania. This site is specially important since it is one of the seven sites in Europe that are under consideration of housing large detector components of Large Apparatus studying Grand Unification and Neutrino Astrophysics (LAGUNA) project. Simulations were performed for vertical muons and for muons with a zenith angle . Primary muon flux and energies at ground level were obtained from previous measurements. Results of the simulations are in general agreement with previous simulations made using MUSIC simulation program and with the measurements made using a mobile detector.
Abstract The evolution of the state vector of a system composed of a cascade three-level atom and a single-mode field with arbitrary detuning and initial condition has been obtained. The quantum fluctuations of the field are presented. The contribution of single- and two-photon transitions to the squeezing of the field is discussed. The dependence of the squeezing on initial intensities of the field and detuning are given.
