The NO$\nu$A collaboration has constructed a 14,000 ton, fine-grained, low-Z, total absorption tracking calorimeter at an off-axis angle to an upgraded NuMI neutrino beam. This detector, with its excellent granularity and energy resolution…
The muon g-2 experiment at Brookhaven National Laboratory measures the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon, $a_\mu$, very precisely. This measurement tests the Standard Model. The analysis for the data collected in 2000 (a $\mu^+$ run) is…
It is shown that using the relativistic field theory of gravity (RTG) and measured value of $\Omega_{tot}$ one can obtain the upper limit on the graviton mass with 95%C.L.: $m\leq 1.6\cdot 10^{-66}$ [g]; within the $(1\sigma)$ range its…

Muonic atom spectroscopy -- the measurement of the x rays emitted during the formation process of a muonic atom -- has a long standing history in probing the shape and size of nuclei. In fact, almost all stable elements have been subject to…
Until now, there is no experimental evidence on the gravitational behaviour of antimatter. While we may be confident that antimatter attracts antimatter, we do not know anything on the interaction between matter and antimatter. We…
Noncommutative corrections to the metric tensor can be significantly enhanced by the presence of electromagnetic fields. Neutron stars, with their large magnetic fields, are possible candidates to search for such effects. We use precision…
Recent results announced as measurements of the muon's anomalous magnetic moment are in fact measurements of the muon's anomalous spin precession frequency. This precession frequency receives contributions from both the muon's anomalous…
If the technology for muon storage rings one day permits sensitivity to precession at the order of $10^{-8}$ Hz, the local gravitational field of Earth can be a dominant contribution to the precession of the muon, which, if ignored, can…
The current $\sim3.5\sigma$ discrepancy between the experimental measurement and theoretical prediction of the muon magnetic anomaly, $a_{\mu}$, stands as a potential indication of the existence of new physics. The Muon $g-2$ experiment at…
Experimental discovery of the gravitomagnetic fields generated by translational and/or rotational currents of matter is one of primary goals of modern gravitational physics. The rotational (intrinsic) gravitomagnetic field of the Earth is…
Muons are puzzling physicists since their discovery when they were first thought to be the meson predicted by Yukawa to mediate the strong force. The recent results at Fermilab on the muon g-2 anomaly puts the muonic sector once more under…
