Abstract

The J-PARC muon g-2/EDM experiment aims to measure the muon magnetic moment anomaly aμ=(g2)/2 a_{\mu} = (g -2 ) / 2 ~ . The target sensitivity for aμa_{\mu} is a statistical uncertainty of 450×109450 \times 10^{-9}, and aμa_{\mu} can be extracted by measuring the spin precession of muons (ωa\omega_a). The ωa\omega_a can be extracted from the distribution of muon decay time, and the time is measured by reconstructing tracks of positrons which are decayed from the muons. To extract ωa\omega_a precisely, the systematic effects on ωa\omega_a should be controlled under the aforementioned sensitivity. To study systematic effects, we develop a compact simulation package, and using our developed package, we study several systematic effects and discuss results. We discuss the package details and studies of systematic effects on ωa\omega_a based on our package.
