The first results from the Muon g-2 experiment at Fermilab will be unveiled and discussed in a special seminar to be held Wednesday, April 7, 2021, at 10:00 AM US Central Time. The Muon g-2 experiment searches for telltale signs of new particles and forces by examining the muon’s interaction with a surrounding magnetic field. By precisely determining the... More »

The Muon g-2 collaboration at Fermilab has recently announced its first results for measurement of the muon magnetic anomaly aμ based on its 2018 Run-1 dataset. The measurement requires measurement of two frequencies, whose ratio forms the key input to the anomaly determination. The magnetic field strength measured in terms of the precession frequency of...

The proton and neutron, known as nucleons, are the fundamental building blocks of all atomic nuclei that make up essentially all the visible matter in the universe, including the stars, the planets, and us. Nucleons have a complex internal structure. Within Quantum Chromodynamics, nucleons emerge as strongly interacting and relativistic bound states of quarks and... More »
