Measurement of the tensor electric and magnetic polarizabilities of the deuteron is of great interest, especially in connection with the possibilities of COSY and GSI. These polarizabilities can be measured in storage rings by the frozen…
The Mu2e experiment measures the conversion rate of muons into electrons and the Muon g-2 experiment measures the muon magnetic moment. Both experiments require 53 MHz batches of 8 GeV protons to be re-bunched into 150 ns, 2.5 MHz pulses…
The persistent $a_\mu \equiv (g-2)/2$ anomaly in the muon sector could be due to new physics visible in the electron sector through a sub-ppb measurement of the anomalous magnetic moment of the electron $a_e$. Driven by recent results on…
The J-PARC muon g-2/EDM experiment aims to measure the muon magnetic moment anomaly $a_{\mu} = (g -2 ) / 2 ~ $. The target sensitivity for $a_{\mu}$ is a statistical uncertainty of $450 \times 10^{-9}$, and $a_{\mu}$ can be extracted by…

We study the muon anomalous magnetic moment $(g-2)_{\mu}$ in the context of the reduced minimal 3-3-1 model recently proposed in the literature. In particular, its spectrum contains a doubly charged scalar ($H^{\pm \pm}$) and gauge boson…

The muonium atom is the purely leptonic bound state of a positive muon and an electron. It has a lifetime of 2.2 $\mu$s. The absence of any known internal structure provides for precision experiments to test fundamental physics theories and…

The anomalous magnetic moments of leptons represent excellent probes of the Standard Model and therefore also of possible new physics effects. In particular, the persisting hint of new physics in the muon $g$-2 motivates the investigation…

A recently reported discrepancy between experimental and theoretical values of the muon's g-2 factor is interpreted as due to small violations of the conservation of P and T in the spin-rotation coupling. The experiments place an upper…
Spin physics had its beginnings in the famous experiments of Stern and Gerlach, which eventually resulted in the postulation of spin by Goudsmit and Uhlenbeck. The Stern-Gerlach experiment told us that the $g$-value of the electron was 2,…
