We compute the complete O(alpha^2) QED corrections to the electron energy spectrum in unpolarized muon decay, including the full dependence on the electron mass. Our calculation reduces the theoretical uncertainty on the electron energy…
The Epoch of Reionisation (EoR) is the period within which the neutral universe transitioned to an ionised one. This period remains unobserved using low-frequency radio interferometers which target the 21 cm signal of neutral hydrogen…
The Distributed Electronic Cosmic-ray Observatory (DECO) is a cell phone app that uses a cell phone camera image sensor to detect cosmic-ray particles and particles from radioactive decay. Images recorded by DECO are classified by a…
We consider the O(alpha^2) hadronic corrections to the energy spectrum of the decay electron in muon decay. We find that the correction can be described, within good approximation, by a linear function in the electron energy. Explicit…
Accelerated muon beams have been considered for next-generation studies of high-energy lepton-antilepton collisions and neutrino oscillations. However, high-brightness muon beams have not yet been produced. The main challenge for muon…
This work demonstrates that two systematic errors, coherent betatron oscillations (CBO) and muon losses can be reduced through application of radio frequency (RF) electric fields, which ultimately increases the sensitivity of the muon $g-2$…
In the presence of a background magnetic field, axion dark matter induces an electric field and can thus excite phonon-polaritons in suitable materials. We revisit the calculation of the axion-photon conversion power output from such…

The electron-neutrino mass (or masses and mixing angles) may be directly measurable in weak electron-capture decays. The favoured experimental technique is "calorimetric". The optimal nuclide is $^{163}$Ho, and several experiments (ECHo,…
Electron-ion interactions play a central role for the energy relaxation processes and ultra-fast structure dynamics in laser-heated matter. The accurate prediction of the electron-ion energy exchange in a transient excited two-temperature…
The MINOS experiment has observed a rise in the underground muon charge ratio $r_\mu$ = ${\mu^+/\mu^-}$. This ratio can be related to the atmospheric production ratios of ${\pi^+/\pi^-}$ and ${K^+/K^-}$. Our analysis indicates that the…
We study the possibilities offered by muon storage rings for tau-neutrino appearance experiments due to nu_mu to nu_tau and nu_e to nu_tau oscillations. Tau event rates for such experiments are first discussed with a view to examining their…

We consider the process of muon-electron elastic scattering, which has been proposed as an ideal framework to measure the running of the electromagnetic coupling constant at space-like momenta and determine the leading-order hadronic…
We study the contribution of $\nu_e \to \nu_\tau \to \tau \to \mu$ transitions to the wrong-sign muon sample of the {\em golden} channel of the Neutrino Factory. Muons from tau decays are not really a background, since they contain…
It was recently shown that a powerful beam of radio/microwave radiation sent out to space can produce detectable back-scattering via the stimulated decay of ambient axion dark matter. This echo is a faint and narrow signal centered at an…
We calculate the radiative corrections to the unpolarized and the four polarized spectrum and rate functions in the leptonic decay of a polarized $ \mu $ into a polarized electron. The new feature of our calculation is that we keep the mass…

The two-pion contribution from low energies to the muon magnetic moment anomaly, although small, has a large relative uncertainty since in this region the experimental data on the cross sections are neither sufficient nor precise enough. It…
