1. Great Muon Expectations Muons are very special: ≈2.2x10 -6 sec! m =105.66MeV ( heavy electron, light proton) Decay: e e ( ) 100%Polarized-P.V. Decay Ang. Dist. Tracks Pol. SR (condensed matter), Muon g-2 (Garwin et al.) Copious Production: 1p(8GeV)+N 1 Intense Muon Source /sec possible! (Currently 10 8 + /sec, 10 7 - /sec at PSI) Muon Collider , Neutrino Factory, Nanoscience… CF? DT He(4MeV)+n(14MeV)+ (10 20 p/s!!)
Muon Collider: Produce /sec, Collect, Cool, Accelerate, Store, Collide at s≥m Z, …2TeV! Challenging! Neutrino Radiation Problem? (Plan B Muon SR-Neutrino Factory + e + e ) Muon Technology Needs To Be Nurtured! (Pursue Fundamental Muon Physics Aggressively!) Build Muon Community
2. Recent Muon Results (PSI) Standard Model Natural Relations: e 0 2 /g 0 2 =sin 2 0 W =1-(m 0 W /m 0 Z ) 2 Radiative Corrections (Loops) Finite & Calculable m t prediction GeV, m H 160GeV (95%CL)! (Relatively light Higgs suggests Supersymmetry) Deviation ”New Physics”: SUSY, Technicolor, W*… * MUON LIFETIME PARTICULARLY IMPORTANT G eg.

(4th generation), 12 (mirror fermions), Technifermions… W* excited W (extra dimensions, compositeness…)
i) Muon ( ) Lifetime MuLAN & FAST experiments at PSI: World Ave. = (17)x10 -6 sec (Further factor ~10 improvement expected in 2010) Already Confirms (improves) Previous World Average by error/2. -1 = ( + e + e ( ))=G 2 m 5 f(m e 2 /m 2 )[1+RC]/192 3 RC = /2 (25/4- 2 )(1+ / [2/3ln(m /m e )-3.7)…] Fermi Th. Other SM and “New Physics” radiative corrections absorbed into G . Eg. Top Mass, Higgs Mass, Technicolor, Susy,W*… G = (5)x10 -5 GeV -2 precise & important

If A LR had never been measured: sin 2 W (m Z ) M S = (20) That would imply S=+0.28(12) N D ~6 2.4!!) (Heavy Higgs! 4th Generation, m W* 1.6TeV…) We would be waiting for 4th Generation, Technicolor, Extra Dim. We missed our chance to nail sin 2 W (m Z ) M S at the Z pole! Future sin 2 W (m Z ) M S Precision: Z Factory?
ii) Hydrogen Muon Capture: Muonic Atom ( - N N’): =-Z 2 2 m , =Z + (1 + Z 2 2 /2 - Capture BR(~Z 3 /1000)) (capture)=1/ -1/ (after time dilation correction) For N=H, theory clean but high precision lifetimes needed. n d (1- 5 )u p =g V (q 2 ) n p +ig M (q 2 )/2m N n q p -g A (q 2 ) n 5 p-g P (q 2 )q /m n 5 p Chiral Pert. Th. Predicts: g P (-0.88m 2 )=8.2 0.2 Exp.(Pre 2007) g P =11-12(1) Off by 3-4 sigma
Muon-H Capture Result (Including recent update with g A =1.275(1)) (capture)=1/ -1/ (after time dilation correction) For atomic 1S singlet ( - p n) exp =725(17)sec -1 MuCap ( - p n) SM =717(3)( (g P -8.2)) 2 sec -1 Implies: g P =7.7(1.2) g p PT 8.2(0.2) Good Agreement! Additional data further factor 3 improvement Push as far as possible! Improve Theory

Most Natural Explanation: SUSY Loops Generic 1 loop SUSY Conribution: a SUSY = (sgn )130x (100GeV/m susy ) 2 tan tan 3-40, m susy GeV Natural Explanation Other Explanations: Hadronic? +isospin data BaBar e + e - + - rad. return ( a =~150x (1.9 ) Other New Physics ~ 2TeV eg Extra Dimensions

SUSY Loops are like EW, but depend on: 2 spin 1/2 - (charginos) 4 spin 1/2 0 (neutralinos) including dark matter! 3 spin 0 sneutrinos and sleptons with mixing Enhancement tan = 2 / 1 ~3-40 Implications: sgn 0 (dark matter searches easier) SUSY at LHC very likely b s , e , edms… Good Bets

Charged Lepton Flavor Violation 1947 Muon established as independent elementary lepton: No e+ implies not excited electron 1958 Feinberg loop calculation of e+ B( e )<10 -4 ~10 -5 implies second neutrino! 1959 Feinberg and Weinberg Study - N e - N Coherent E e 105MeV Very Clean-Distinct Stop - in material ( sec) N(1S) atom i) e Rate 0.5x10 6 /sec ii) N N’ (N=Al) 0.7x10 6 /sec (N=Ti ) 2.6x10 6 /sec grows Z 4 (very roughly)

Some Theory Considerations: If transition dipole operator (chiral changing) dominates BR( e )=389R( Al eAl)=238R( Ti eTi) But conversion exp. can be more sensitive by ! Eg. Popular SUSY Models (may be related to a ) Neutrino Mass & Mixing Effects Lepton Flavor Violation BR( e )~3 /32 [m 3 2 -m 2 2 ] 2 /m W 4 (s 13 c 13 s 23 ) 2 R( N eN)~100BR( e )~ still tiny, but enhanced by Chiral conserving amplitudes. (Lesson) Conversion better for Heavy Neutrino Mixing In General: 1/200 BR( e )/R( N eN) 200 Physics scale ~3000TeV Probed!
Muon g-2 and LFV If SUSY or any other New Physics is responsible for a , it will also induce LFV via mixing effects. (Chiral Changing) D L,R =16 2 2 a e /G F m 2 e <4.5x10 -5 Large Slepton Mixing (M 2 -M 1 )/M 1 <4.5x10 -5 ! Very Near Degeneracy (R Symmetry?) MEG( e ) at 2x may see an effect or e <6x10 -6 !

5. Muon Collider( + - )/Neutrino Factory i) Need Copious Source of Protons Fast cycling 8-16GeV Accelerator or Linac Power~4MW >10 14 + - /sec ii) Collect and Cool + & - Beams iii) Accelerate High Energy iv) Large Storage Ring (~1000 revolutions) v) Luminosity ~ desirable (at 2TeV) Energy: 91GeV Z Factory (sin 2 W, b b,…) GeV Higgs Pole Resonance(s) 161GeV W + W - (m W ) 350GeV t t (m t ), HZ… SUSY Pairs 2TeV + - “New Physics”, - - p…
Neutrino Factory SR Intense Muon Beam: + e + e ; - e - e Leads to clean source of neutrinos Statistics E 3 Go to 20GeV Very Good 13 e , but osc length ~500km x E (GeV) Not optimized for CP Violation Long Distances! Very Good for small 13, New Physics Currently: All Neutrino Data (including MINOS2009) sin 2 2 13 =0.08 0.04 (relatively large!) Fogli et al. Hep-ph (2009)
6. Outlook/Vision PSI Exps. MuLAN, FAST and MuCAP interesting and timely. Expect Improvement in and g P to continue (2010 results) No definitive sin 2 W (m Z ) M S in sight (LHC? A FB (Z )) Perhaps a exp improvement (x4) at Fermilab (JPARC?) BaBar and Belle doing e+e- hadrons + as well as +hadrons with high statistics. Factor 2 a (V.P.) improvement? (Novosibirsk factor 3) MEG at PSI: BR( e )~2x (running!) (future 2x ) 2e at Fermilab/JPARC aim for Al eAl with 2x SES! Sensitive to “New Physics” up to 3000TeV (Robust)
If MEG ( e ) sees several (5) events it will be a major discovery. 2e should then see between ,000 events from Al eAl. If MEG sees nothing, 2e could still see 10,000 events! 2e promises to be a flagship experiment. With upgrade eg. (project X) it could be extended to No better way to push muon technology while doing forefront physics! 2e must do experiment (fast track)
LHC Many Discoveries Anticipated: Higgs, SUSY, Extra Dimensions, Z’, Strong Dynamics etc. So far, no evidence for New Physics except perhaps g -2 (Hope Deviation is Correct) Can Mainland USA get back to Collider HEP?
Project X at Fermilab 2MW proton Linac with 8GeV protons muon, kaon, neutrino physics (motivation) (Upgradeable to 4MW) Front end of a muon collider (Real Motivation?) Z Factory, Higgs,… Neutrino Factory… p, 2 TeV + - Collider at Fermilab The Future of US Collider HEP is the Muon!
