Muography - Invisible particles help to reveal invisible structures
/ Hatzifotiadou, Despina (Universita e INFN, Bologna (IT)) ; Mueller, Katharina (University of Zurich (CH)) ; Foka, Yiota (GSI - Helmholtzzentrum fur Schwerionenforschung GmbH (DE))
Among the IPPOG Forum members, many experimentalists work with (or even developed) specialized muon detectors for the purposes of fundamental research. However, they find many direct applications for society spanning from scanning lories and controlling the spent nuclear fuel to power plants to exploring underground cavities [...]

Medipix detectors, from colour X-ray imaging to education
/ Christodoulou, Pinelopi (Czech Technical University in Prague (CZ)) ; Foka, Yiota (GSI - Helmholtzzentrum fur Schwerionenforschung GmbH (DE))
Pinelopi Christodoulou, a member of the IPPOG Working Group and a PhD in the Medipix collaboration, gives details on how to visualise the invisible for educational reasons and get students acquainted with radiation; just one of the applications of the Medipix/Timepix family of detectors developed for fundamental research experiments at CERN. She also gives details on many other applications spanning from medicine to art authentication..

Superconductivity – quantum mechanics at work
/ Mueller, Katharina (University of Zurich (CH)) ; Foka, Yiota (GSI - Helmholtzzentrum fur Schwerionenforschung GmbH (DE))
Katharina Müller, the Swiss representative in IPPOG, brings super-conductivity to general public by emphasizing one of the most amazing applications: levitating trains like the maglev in Shanghai. She had the privilege to work on high temperature superconductivity at the University of Zurich at the time of the big breakthrough in 1986 with the discovery of high-temperature superconductors , for which the two scientists, K. [...]

Application for Society : Muon Tomography
/ Cacciatore, Fabiola (University of Notre Dame (US))
We are accustomed to X-ray radiography to look inside the human body. A similar technique, called muon tomography (or radiography) uses invisible particles from the atmosphere to look into large structures of or on our earth [...]
