Muon is the major cosmic rays at the sea level.It can be detected by scintillator detectors such as sodium iodide NaI(Tl).In paper,an experimental method is presented,which uses a high sampling rate oscillo-scope to digitize the deposited signal of muon and the relevant decay signal,and the off-line analysis to determine the muon lifetimes.This experiment is relatively simple and can be extended as a frontier project for particle detec-tion in college physics experiments,in which radioactive sources and conventional nuclear electronics are not essen-tial.
