Poster summary

The muon telescope has been taking data from 2016 onwards and has published research articles. The Geant4-based work is done in muon simulations hitting the two paddles and their coincidence hits. Another simulation is to design a shield from galactic cosmic rays. Recent simulations of cosmic rays were done for nuclear power plant which is published.
