Description
A transmission muon radiography of the Mt. Vesuvius volcano (Naples, Italy) is carried out by the MURAVES (Muon Radiography of Vesuvius) experiment. The measurement relies on the reconstruction of trajectories of cosmic-ray muons passing through the volcano to investigate the internal structure of its summit cone.
This contribution focuses on the data processing framework, describing both the reconstruction pipeline itself and the surrounding software infrastructure designed to ensure reliability, reproducibility, and user independence.
The pipeline encompasses all stages of the processing chain, from raw detector output to reconstructed muon tracks, with particular emphasis on the adopted tracking strategy. The entire workflow is orchestrated by a Python-based workflow management system, Snakemake, that handles task dependencies and ensures a structured and automated execution of all processing steps. Combined with a containerized environment, Snakemake guarantees user-independent operation and fully reproducible results. Finally, the versioning of the framework allows full traceability of modifications: each output is uniquely associated with a specific version of the workflow.
This work establishes a transparent and reproducible data-processing framework that ensures the reliability and long-term consistency of the MURAVES measurements, supporting both current analyses and future developments.
