Use of negative muons as elemental depth scanning analytical method for metal composite materials: an application to archaeometallurgy

Abstract: We intend to perform a set of measurements on composite metal artifacts in order to test the capability of the negative muons elemental analysis method to identify the alloy guest elements and perform depth profiling. To do that we intend to test several different artifacts (historical or replicas) related to historical metallurgy, composed by different alloys of various thicknesses and mechanically or chemically bond together.
