The Brookhaven muon (g-2) storage ring high voltage quadrupoles

The design, construction, and operation of the electrostatic quadrupoles used in the muon ðg � 2Þ experiment E821 of BNL are described in detail. A new lead design allowed the construction of a very reliable system which could operate for hundreds of thousands pulses with no sparking. The new design also made possible the elimination of systematic errors associated with the E; B fields generated by the low energy trapped electrons present in Penning traps under medium vacuum conditions. r 2003 Elsevier Science B.V.

A fast non-ferric kicker for the muon (g−2) experiment

Abstract A fast, non-ferric kicker has been designed, built and installed in the muon (g−2) experiment at the Brookhaven Alternating Gradient Synchrotron. A current pulse of 4200 A peak, and base-width of 400 ns , is passed in opposite directions through parallel plates 10 cm apart on either side of the muon storage region in the (g−2) storage ring. A field integral of 0.1 Tm was achieved, which kicks the 3.09 GeV /c muon beam by about 10 mrad . This kick is achieved by employing three identical 1.76 m long sections, each powered by a separate pulse-forming network. The design and performance of the kicker is presented.

New Results from the Muon g ‐ 2 Experiment

The Muon g ‐ 2 collaboration has measured the anomalous magnetic g value, a = (g ‐ 2)/2, of the positive muon with an unprecedented uncertainty of 0.7 parts per million. The result aμ+(expt) = 11659204(7)(5) × 10−10, based on data collected in the year 2000 at Brookhaven National Laboratory, is in good agreement with the preceeding data on aμ+ and aμ−. The measurement tests standard model theory, which at the level of the current experimental uncertainty involves quantum electrodynamics, quantum chromodynamics, and electroweak interaction in a significant way.
