We describe the installation, commissioning, and characterization of the new injection kicker system in the Muon $g-2$ Experiment (E989) at Fermilab, which makes a precision measurement of the muon magnetic anomaly. Three Blumlein pulsers…

We examine the prospects for discovering new physics through muon dipole moments. The current deviation in $g_{\mu}-2$ may be due entirely to the muon's {\em electric} dipole moment. We note that the precession frequency in the proposed BNL…
