摘要: We provide a comprehensive study of the cosmic-ray muon flux and induced activity as function overburden along with convenient parametrization salient fluxes differential distributions for suite underground laboratories ranging in depth from $\ensuremath{\sim}1$ to 8 km.w.e.. Particular attention is given muon-induced fast neutron sites we develop depth-sensitivity relation characterize effect such background experiments searching WIMP dark matter neutrinoless double-beta decay.
