Description
We have previously revealed the internal structures of nuclear reactors and pyramids using cosmic-ray muon imaging with nuclear emulsions. In this study, we aim to apply this technique to levees and to establish a new method for levee safety assessment by visualizing the internal material distribution. In this presentation, we report the current status of the analysis of observational data collected over a two-year period starting in 2021, and discuss the issues associated with the current detector configuration as well as a new observation scheme proposed on the basis of these findings.
