Beam dynamics corrections to the Run-1 measurement of the muon anomalous magnetic moment at Fermilab (2024)

Abstract

This paper presents the beam dynamics systematic corrections and their uncertainties for the Run-1 dataset of the Fermilab Muon g-2 Experiment. Two corrections to the measured muon precession frequency ωam are associated with well-known effects owing to the use of electrostatic quadrupole (ESQ) vertical focusing in the storage ring. An average vertically oriented motional magnetic field is felt by relativistic muons passing transversely through the radial electric field components created by the ESQ system. The correction depends on the stored momentum distribution and the tunes of the ring, which has relatively weak vertical focusing. Vertical betatron motions imply that the muons do not orbit the ring in a plane exactly orthogonal to the vertical magnetic field direction. A correction is necessary to account for an average pitch angle associated with their trajectories. A third small correction is necessary, because muons that escape the ring during the storage time are slightly biased in initial spin phase compared to the parent distribution. Finally, because two high-voltage resistors in the ESQ network had longer than designed RC time constants, the vertical and horizontal centroids and envelopes of the stored muon beam drifted slightly, but coherently, during each storage ring fill. This led to the discovery of an important phase-acceptance relationship that requires a correction. The sum of the corrections to ωam is 0.50±0.09 ppm; the uncertainty is small compared to the 0.43 ppm statistical precision of ωam.

FAQs

What is the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon? ›

The anomalous magnetic moment of the muon, aμ, is a unique quantity that allows high-precision tests of the Standard Model. Currently, a difference of 3 to 4 standard deviations is observed between the prediction of the Standard Model and the most precise measurement performed.

What is muon precession? ›

A beam of muons with aligned spins is directed into a storage ring that has a very precisely known magnetic field. As the beam goes around this storage ring, the muons' spins wobble, or precess. Scientists measure the rate that they precess very precisely.

What factors are responsible for anomalous magnetic moment? ›

Anomalous magnetic moments can be generated by the existence of metal ions with two different geometries within the same unit cell. complex, 4-coordinate nickel atoms in the unit cell can occur in square planar as well as tetrahedral geometries. This gives rise to anomalous magnetic moment of the complex.

What is the value of the anomalous magnetic moment? ›

The g value of the electron derived from the Dirac theory is exactly an integer two, and the difference between the measured g value and Dirac's two is called the anomalous magnetic moment of the electron: a e ≡ ( g − 2 ) / 2 = 0.001 19 ( 5 ) .

What is the Fermilab muon experiment? ›

Muon g − 2 (pronounced "gee minus two") is a particle physics experiment at Fermilab to measure the anomalous magnetic dipole moment of a muon to a precision of 0.14 ppm, which is a sensitive test of the Standard Model.

What is the purpose of the muon? ›

Muons can help detect dangerous nuclear material and see into damaged nuclear power plants . Scientists use muons for archeological purposes to peer inside large, dense objects such as the pyramids in Egypt.

How do muons affect humans? ›

In conclusion, patterns of DNA mutations observed as patterns of human disease closely adhere to patterns expected under conditions of a constant air shower of muons causing constant DNA damage. Thus, DNA damage by muons explains evolution, aging, and disease (Colchero et al., 2021; Yamamoto et al., 2022).

What is the anomalous magnetic moment of Tau? ›

The anomalous magnetic moment of the tau lepton, as a_tau = (g_tau - 2)/2, serves as a sensitive indicator of new physics. However, its precise measurement is significantly more challenging when compared to the magnetic moments of electrons and muons.

What is the muon paradox? ›

The muon paradox refers to the puzzling observation that muons, despite their short average lifetime of about 2.2 microseconds, are detected at the Earth's surface in significant numbers, even after traveling long distances at near the speed of light.

What is the anomalous magnetic moment of quarks? ›

The quark anomalous magnetic moment (AMM) is dynamically generated through spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking. It has been revealed that, even though its exact form is still unknown, the quark AMM is essential to exploring quark matter properties and QCD phase structure under external magnetic fields.

What is the formula for magnetic anomaly? ›

The magnetic anomaly of a faulted block can be similarly derived as, A T(x) = 2J ( 1 - cos 2 cos 2 Dr.)
