How To Make MUONS

The video tutorial explains muons, particles similar to electrons but heavier. It discusses their properties, including their rapid decay into electrons and neutrinos, making them challenging to store. Muons are naturally produced by cosmic rays but can be generated in large quantities using particle accelerators. The process involves accelerating protons to collide with atomic nuclei, creating pions that decay into muons. These muons have applications in testing special relativity, fusion, and creating muonic atoms.
