چکیده

An overview (but not comprehensive) list of intense slow muon physics programs at a future neutrino factory, ranging from particle physics, nuclear physics to applications, is given in Table 1, where programs are categorized into three groups, (1) precision measurements, (2) search for rare processes, and (3) application. Among the particle physics programs with muons [1], very important are (a) precision measurement of the muon g − 2 anomalous magnetic moment, (b) search for T-odd muon electric dipole moment (EDM), and (c) search for charged lepton mixing (CLM). I call them ”the muon trio”. They are significantly important to search for new physics, and also closely related one another in some cases of new physics, such as supersymmetry (SUSY). From this reason, I would focus on ”the muon trio” hereafter. The goals of next generation experiments on the muon trio might be given as follows.

Physics with a Millimole of Muons

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 per year. I summarize and comment upon some highlights of the Fermilab Workshop on Physics at the First Muon Collider and at the Front End of a Muon Collider. Topics include various varieties of μμ colliders, μp colliders...

Muon Acceleration: Introduction and Limiting Technologies

An accelerator complex that can produce ultra-intense beams of muons presents many opportunities to explore new physics. These facilities are unique in that, in a relatively straightforward way, they can present a physics program that can be staged and thus move forward incrementally, addressing exciting new physics at each step. An intense cooled lowenergy muon source can be used to perform ex...

Physics with Low-energy Muons at a Neutrino Factory Complex

The physics potential of an intense source of low-energy muons is studied. Such a source is a necessary stage towards building the neutrino factories and muon colliders which are being considered at present. The CERN Neutrino Factory could deliver muon beams with intensities 3–4 orders of magnitude higher than available now, with large freedom in the choice of the time structure. Low-energy muo...

Using muons to probe for new physics

Searches for new physics using muons are reviewed. Particular attention is paid to muon number non-conserving processes, like the decay μ → eγ and muon–electron conversion in muonic atoms. Also, experimental determinations and theoretical predictions for the muon anomalous magnetic moment are reviewed. Muons were first observed in cosmic ray detectors in 1936 [1, 2]. However, for several follow...

The Neutrino Factory

This talk will present arguments that the Neutrino Factory an extremely intense source of flavor-tagged neutrinos from muon decays in a storage ring gives the best physics reach for CP violation, as well as virtually all parameters in the neutrino oscillation parameter space. It will describe the physics capabilities of a baseline Neutrino Factory as compared to other possible future facilities...
