The Muon: Discovered in 1936
Discovered in cosmic rays by Seth Neddermeyer and Carl Anderson

Confirmed by Street and Stevenson
It interacted too weakly with matter to be the “Yukawa” particle which was postulated to carry the nuclear force

The discovery of the muon was abig surprise…
• Lifetime ~2.2 s, practically forever
• 2nd generation lepton
• mme= 206.768 277(24)
• produced polarized– in-flight decay: both “forward”
and “backward” muons are highly polarized
• Paul Scherrer Institut has 108 /s in a beam

Death of the Muon
• Decay is self analyzing
![Page 7: B. Lee Roberts, PSI - 15 August 2006 - p. 1/54 The Muon: A Laboratory for Particle Physics B.L. Roberts Department of Physics Boston University roberts](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110207/56649d6d5503460f94a4d913/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
B. Lee Roberts, PSI - 15 August 2006 - p. 7/54
What have we learn from the ’s death?
• The strength of the weak interaction– i.e. the Fermi constant GF (more properly G)
• The fundamental nature of the weak interaction– i.e. is it scalar, vector, tensor,
pseudo-scalar, pseudo-vector or pseudo-tensor?
• Lepton flavor conservation in -decay
• VEV of the Higgs field:
• Induced form-factors in nuclear -capture

The Lan experiment at PSI will accumulate 1012 -decays and measure G to ~1 ppm. If LHC provides a Higgs Mass, then the precision of the confrontation with the SM will greatly improve

The Weak Lagrangian (Leptonic Currents)
• Lepton current is (vector – axial vector) “(V – A)”
• It might have been: V±A or S±V±A or most general form:
Scalar ± Vector ± Weak-Magnitism ± PseudoScalar ± Axial-Vector ± Tensor
There have been extensive studies at PSI by Fetscher,
Gerber, et al. to look for other couplings in muon decay. Search continues with TWIST at TRIUMF.
At present, none have been found.

B. Lee Roberts, PSI - 15 August 2006 - p. 14/54
If the Strong Interaction is Present
• Then we have a more general current, which in principle can have 6 induced form factors in the current.

B. Lee Roberts, PSI - 15 August 2006 - p. 15/54
Leptonic and hadronic currents
• For nuclear capture (and also in -decay) there are induced form-factors and the hadronic V-A current contains 6 terms.– in capture the induced pseudoscaler term
becomes important

Transformation Properties of Electric and Magnetic Dipole Moments
An EDM implies both P and T are violated. Assuming CPT symmetry, an EDM at a measureable level would imply non-standard model CP.

However, it should be emphasized that while such arguments are appealing from the point of view of symmetry, they are not necessarily valid.
Ultimately the validity of all such symmetry arguments must rest on experiment.

Summary and Outlook• The muon has provided us with much knowledge on
how nature works.• PSI has played an enormous role in providing this
information: e.g.– Search for other couplings in muon decay: (Fetscher, Gerber, et
al.,)– Search for LFV:
• search for N → e- N• search for +e- → - e+
• search for + → e+ e+ e- and + → e+ – Running/Building experiments:
• muon lifetime - G
• muCap - gp
• MEG - LFV: + → e+

Summary and Outlook• The muon has provided us with much knowledge on how
nature works.• New experiments on the horizion continue this tradition.• Muon (g-2), with a precision of 0.5 ppm, has a 3.3
discrepancy with the standard model.– Upgrade, E969 waits for funding decision in 10/06
• This new physics, if confirmed, would show up in an EDM and perhaps LFV as well.
• MEG is set to turn on and collect data in the next year. • Muon-electron conversion holds the best experimental
prospect for going much further on LFV.
• There is plenty of room for new surprises!

• Until the discrepancies between the individual data sets can be resolved, and CVC can be shown to hold independently it’s clear that only the e+e- data can be used to determine a(had)
The agreement between SND and CMD-2 invalidates the use of data until a better understanding of the discrepancies is achieved (an interesting question as such)
