We present a new measurement of the positive muon magnetic anomaly, a µ ≡ (gµ − 2)/2, from the Fermilab Muon g −2 Experiment based on data collected in 2019 and 2020. We have analyzed more than four times the number of positrons from muon decay than in our previous result from 2018 data. The systematic error is reduced by more than a factor of two due to better running conditions, a more stable beam, and improved knowledge of the magnetic field weighted by the muon distribution, ω′ p , and of the anomalous precession frequency corrected for beam dynamics effects, ωa. From the ratio ωa/ω ′ p , together with precisely determined external parameters, we determine a µ = 116 592 057(25) × 10 −11 (0.21 ppm). Combining this result with our previous result from the 2018 data, we obtain a µ (FNAL) = 116 592 055(24) × 10 −11 (0.20 ppm). The new experimental world average is aµ(Exp) = 116 592 059(22) × 10 −11 (0.19 ppm), which represents a factor of two improvement in precision.
The LHCb experiment is dedicated to precision measurements of CP violation and rare decays of B hadrons at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN (Geneva). The initial configuration and expected performance of the detector and associated systems, as established by test beam measurements and simulation studies, is described.
The T2K experiment is a long baseline neutrino oscillation experiment. Its main goal is to measure the last unknown lepton sector mixing angle θ13θ13 by observing νeνe appearance in a νμνμ beam. It also aims to make a precision measurement of the known oscillation parameters, View the MathML sourceΔm232 and sin22θ23sin22θ23, via νμνμ disappearance studies. Other goals of the experiment include various neutrino cross-section measurements and sterile neutrino searches. The experiment uses an intense proton beam generated by the J-PARC accelerator in Tokai, Japan, and is composed of a neutrino beamline, a near detector complex (ND280), and a far detector (Super-Kamiokande) located 295 km away from J-PARC. This paper provides a comprehensive review of the instrumentation aspect of the T2K experiment and a summary of the vital information for each subsystem
