Highly energetic particles called muons are ever present in the atmosphere and can pass through large objects with ease. Sensitive detectors installed along the Tokyo Bay tunnel measure muons passing through the sea above them.2022-04-13T13:09+0200innovationnewsnetwork-2ce04972aea2234c86437035b993d7cb20220413130900https://whatsnew2day.com/largest-earthquake-in-history-hit-northern-chile-3800-years-ago-and-caused-a-huge-tsunami/Magnitude is the most common measure of the magnitude of an earthquake. It is a measure of the magnitude of the earthquake source and is the same number no matter where you are or what the shaking feels like. The Richter scale is an outdated method of measuring magnitude that is no longer used for large, teleseismic earthquakes.2022-04-13T12:41+0200whatsnew2day-3d339da985677b70c846f03e6a5cd59020220413124100https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-10714429/Largest-earthquake-HISTORY-hit-northern-Chile-3-800-years-ago-caused-huge-tsunami.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&ito=1490Earthquakes occur when two tectonic plates rub together and rupture, with longer ruptures causing bigger earthquakes. Before now, the largest known rupture in history occurred in 1960 in Southern Chile. Professor James Goff, co-author of the study, said: 'It had been thought that there could not be....2022-04-13T12:15+0200dailymail-4b9f067d34c23070fd926c9384ba57fd20220413121500
