The very precise measurement of the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon, recently released by the Muon g-2 experiment at Fermilab, can serve to set stringent constraints on new particles. If the observed 4$\sigma$ discrepancy from the…
The accurate knowledge of the $\bar\nu_e (\nu_\mu)$ beam produced in $\mu^-$ decays and the absence of $\nu_e (\bar\nu_\mu)$ contamination, make a future muon storage ring the ideal place to look for $\numunue$ ($\numubarnuebar$)…
The T2K Experiment has observed the appearance of electron neutrinos in a muon-neutrino beam. Twenty eight neutrino candidates pass the selection cuts with a predicted background of $4.64 \pm 0.53$ events, which corresponds to a 6.8$\sigma$…
Prospective presentation is given for the experimental program of the KLOE-2 Collaboration, to be performed using the DA$\Phi$NE $e^+e^-$ collider upgraded in luminosity. Data with the total luminosity of 25 fb$^{-1}$ are aimed to be…
In response to the growing interest in building a Neutrino Factory to produce high intensity beams of electron- and muon-neutrinos and antineutrinos, in October 1999 the Fermilab Directorate initiated two six-month studies. The first study,…
The hydrogen-like muonium atom ($\mu^+e^-$) consists of a positive muon ($\mu^+$) and an electron ($e^-$). Since it was first observed by Hughes et al. in 1960, a series of precision experiments could be carried out testing bound state…
Neutrinos from STORed Muons (nuSTORM; formerly VLENF) is a proposed experiment to use 3.8 GeV/c muon decay to produce a well-understood beam of electron and muon neutrinos that can be used for short baseline physics. A magnetized far…
The 3.6 \sigma discrepancy between the predicted and measured values of the anomalous magnetic moment of positive muons can be explained by the existence of a new dark boson Z_\mu with a mass in the sub-GeV range, which is coupled…
Koike et al. proposed the charged lepton flavor violation (CLFV) decay of the muonic atom $\mu^-e^-\rightarrow e^-e^-$ as one of the promising processes to search for new physics beyond the standard model. It was found that the attractive…
The muon g-2 experiment at Brookhaven has been taking data since 1997. Analyses of the data taken in 1997 and 1998, which include about 2% of the data taken so far, have improved the experimental accuracy in the muon anomalous magnetic…
The precise measurement of the muon anomalous magnetic moment $a_\mathrm{\mu}$ has stimulated much theoretical and experimental efforts over more than six decades. The last experiment at Brookhaven National Laboratory, Upton, NY, USA…
MINOS is an accelerator neutrino oscillation experiment at Fermilab. An intense high energy neutrino beam is produced at Fermilab and sent to a near detector on the Fermilab site and also to a 5 kTon far detector 735 km away in the Soudan…
A search for high-energy neutrinos was performed using data collected by the IceCube Neutrino Observatory from May 2009 to May 2010, when the array was running in its 59-string configuration. The data sample was optimized to contain muon…
The eventual prospect of muon colliders reaching several TeV encourages us to consider the experimental opportunities presented by very copious stores of muons, approaching $10^{21}$ per year. I summarize and comment upon some highlights of…
The Fermilab Muon $g-2$ experiment measures the muon anomalous magnetic moment with high precision. Together with recent improvements on the theory front, the first results of the experiment confirm the long-standing discrepancy between the…
The FAMU experiment aims to accurately measure the hyperfine splitting of the ground state of the muonic hydrogen atom. A measurement of the transfer rate of muons from hydrogen to heavier gases is necessary for this purpose. In June 2014,…
Correlated band theory implemented as a combination of density functional theory with exact diagonalization [DFT+U(ED)] of the Anderson impurity term with Coulomb repulsion $U$ in the open 14-orbital $5f$ shell is applied to UTe$_2$. The…
We study the exotic muon decays with five charged tracks in the final state. First, we investigate the Standard Model rate for $\mu^+ \to 3e^+\,2e^-\,2\nu$ ($B = 4.0\times 10^{-10})$ and find that the Mu3e experiment should have tens to…
Charged lepton flavor violation (CLFV) is expected in a diverse set of new physics scenarios. The current generation of experiments probe CLFV in the muon sector in three complementary channels: $\mu^-N \rightarrow e^- N$ (Mu2e, COMET),…
