DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Andrea Giammanco (CP3\, Louvain-la-Neuve)\n\nCosmic-
 ray muons\, produced in the atmosphere and able to penetrate hundreds of m
 eters of rock\, provide a powerful non-invasive probe to image the interio
 r of large and dense objects. Muography exploits both muon attenuation and
  multiple Coulomb scattering to reconstruct density distributions\, with u
 se cases ranging from volcanology to archaeology and cargo inspection. Thi
 s colloquium will introduce the physical principles at the basis of this n
 ew application of HEP detectors and analysis techniques\, review some succ
 ess stories\, and present the activities of the CP3 muography team. Finall
 y\, this talk will outline the main challenges of this emerging field\, su
 ch as low flux and environmental systematics\, and discuss future perspect
 ives\, including our first steps toward exploiting muons from laser-plasma
  accelerated electron beams as a complementary imaging source.\n \nVideoc
