Description

Sometimes referred to as the temporal Bell inequality, the Leggett-Garg inequality (LGI) is a statement about correlations among measurements of a system at different times. Previously studied in quantum-mechanical systems such as neutrino oscillations, the spin precession of the muon at muon g-2 experiments provides a new pathway for measuring the LGI. In this talk I’ll discuss steps for constructing the LGI in this scenario and show its violation due to the muon’s spin precession.
