Cosmic ray muons have been considered as a non-conventional radiation probein various applications. To utilize cosmic ray muons in engineeringapplications, two important quantities, trajectory and momentum, must be known.The muon trajectories are easily reconstructed using two-fold detector arrayswith a high spatial resolution. However, precise measurement of muon momentumis difficult to be achieved without deploying large and expensive spectrometerssuch as solenoid magnets. Here, we propose a new method to estimate muonmomentum using multi-layer pressurized gas Cherenkov radiators. This isaccurate, portable, compact (< 1m3), and easily coupled with existing muondetectors without the need of neither bulky magnetic nor time-of-flightspectrometers. The results show that not only our new muon spectrometer canmeasure muon momentum with a resolution of +-0.5 GeV/c in a momentum range of0.1 to 10.0 GeV/c, but also we can reconstruct cosmic muon spectrum with highaccuracy (~90%).
