Abstract

Traditional analysis of g=2(1+κ)g=2(1+\kappa ) experiments for charged leptons use a classical spin vector picture. For muons, we here employ a more exact Dirac quantum four component spinor theory. Survival probabilities (including wave packet effects) are computed. These oscillate with the frequency Ω=(κeB/Mc)\Omega =(\kappa eB/Mc) as has been assumed in previous muon (g2)(g-2) experimental analyses; i.e. muon survival probability oscillations are already at the root of previous succesful (g2)(g-2) measurements. Further oscillations should also be observed if mixed neutrino mass matrices were to enter into the reactions (e.g. π+μ++νμ\pi^+ \to \mu^+ +\nu_\mu) producing muons.
