At the Paul Scherrer Institute we are developing of a high precision instrument to measure the muon electric dipole moment (EDM) using the frozen-spin technique. The presence of a permanent EDM in an elementary particle implies Charge-Parity symmetry violation and, within the context of the Standard Model, the electric dipole moment of elementary particles is extremely small. However, many...
DUNE and JUNO are two leading next-generation neutrino experiments that will address some of the most important open questions in neutrino physics. DUNE is a long baseline experiment consisting of two detectors placed in what will be the world’s most intense neutrino beam: a near detector in Fermilab near the beam source, and a much larger far detector at the Sanford Underground Research...
Currently PSI delivers the most intense continuous muon beam in the world with up to a few 10^8 μ+/s. The High Intensity Muon Beam (HiMB) project aims at developing a new target station and muon beam lines able to deliver 10^10 μ+/s, with a huge impact for low-energy, high-precision muon experiments.
While the next generation of proton drivers with beam powers in excess of the current...
Various measurements aiming at the precise determination of the fundamental physical quantities of muons (mass, magnetic moment) are underway at the J-PARC Materials and Life Science Experimental Facility, Muon Facility (MUSE). These include muonium HFS and 1s-2s measurements, HFS measurements of muonic helium and muon trapping. Preliminaries results have already been obtained for the first...
COMET is an experiment at the Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex (J-PARC), which will search for coherent neutrinoless tran- sition of muons to electrons in the coulomb eld of atomic nuclei (𝜇− + N → 𝑒− + N). Since this process violates charged lepton avor conservation it is highly suppressed in the Standard Model and thus provides a promising channel to probe new physics.
