Claim 0:
1. A system for non-destructive examination of three-dimensional (3D) objects, the system comprising:
a) a muon source arranged to direct muon particles at and through the 3D object;
b) a muon detector arranged to receive the muon particles from the muon source to produce a muon signal wherein the muon signal is representative of the 3D object; and
c) a first computing device with a memory and a processor executing an algorithm to analyze the muon signal, wherein in the analysis comprises:
i) creating a 3D rendering of the 3D object based upon the muon signal;
ii) preparing a physics-based digital model of the 3D object; and
iii) comparing the 3D rendered object to the digital model to identify defects within the 3D object.
