AI 中文摘要
我们首次证实，来自缪子望远镜的宇宙射线缪子入射方向可作为可测量的物理熵源。利用缪子望远镜收集的六个月数据，我们采用当地天顶角和方位角进行随机性提取。本研究结果显示，来自探测器的每条宇宙缪子径迹最多可生成4比特，熵值为0.999182比特/比特，最大比特率约为650比特/秒，通过增大探测器尺寸和提升角分辨率，该比特率有望提高。所提出的技术可潜在用作随机数发生器，用于闭合贝尔不等式违背测试中的设定独立性漏洞。本文详细讨论了数据采集、数据约化及数据预处理算法。
英文摘要
We demonstrate, for the first time, that the arrival directions of cosmic-ray muons from a muon telescope provide a measurable source of physical entropy. Using six months of data collected from a muon telescope, the local zenith and azimuth angles were used for randomness extraction. The result of this study show that each cosmic muon track from our detector can generate upto 4 bits with an entropy of 0.999182 bits/bit with a maximum bit rate of roughly 650 bits/s which can possibly be enhanced by improving the detector size and angular resolution. The suggested technique can be potentially used as a random number generator required for closing the settings-independence loophole in the tests for violations of Bell's inequality. The data acquisition, data reduction, and conditioning algorithms are discussed in detail.
