DESCRIPTION:\nThe Muographers' Conference Series\nCosmic-ray muons are omn
 ipresent elementary particles continuously produced in Earth’s atmospher
 e. Advances in particle physics instrumentation and methodology have enabl
 ed the development of muography — also known as muon tomography or muo
 n radiography — a passive and non-destructive imaging technique used to 
 explore the internal structure of large natural and human-made objects.\nA
 n international community has emerged to fully exploit the potential of th
 is technique across academic and industrial sectors and to promote its soc
 ietal applications. The Muographers Conference Series has been held regula
 rly since the late 2000s\, providing a platform for participants from all 
 around the world to present new discoveries and innovations\, and to discu
 ss future directions in muography. In recent years\, the conferences have 
 taken place in Ghent\, Belgium (2021)\, Tokyo\, Japan (2022)\, Naples\, It
 aly (2023)\, and Santa Fe\, New Mexico\, USA (2024).Muographers 2026The Mu
 ographers 2026 will be held between 1-5 June 2026 in Budapest\, Hungary. T
 his event will consist of a workshop\, a symposium (both hybrid)\, and a 
 school (in person). The event will feature plenary sessions\, a poster ses
 sion and an exhibition of scientific equipment. Main Topics:Next-generat
 ion instrumentation in muography (detectors\, artificial muon sources)Data
  processing and simulation methods (tracking\, imaging\, inversion\, machi
 ne learning)Fundamental and applied research using muography (Earth scienc
 e\, physics\, archaeology)Industrial and societal applications of muograph
 y (infrastructure monitoring\, geotechnics\, mining applications\, nuclear
  safety and security\, border control\, positioning\, navigation\, timing)
 Education\, outreach\, and art (muography challenge\, high school projects
 \, muography art)Keynote Speakers:Kunihiro Morishima (Nagoya University)\;
