We present a new measurement of the positive muon magnetic anomaly, $a_{\mu }\equiv (g_{\mu }-2)/2$, from the Fermilab Muon $g-2$ Experiment using data collected in 2019 and 2020. We have analyzed more than 4 times the number of positrons from muon decay than in our previous result from 2018 data. The systematic error is reduced by more than a factor of 2 due to better running conditions, a more stable beam, and improved knowledge of the magnetic field weighted by the muon distribution, ${\tilde{\omega }}_p^{\prime }$, and of the anomalous precession frequency corrected for beam dynamics effects, ${\omega }_a$. From the ratio ${\omega }_a/{\tilde{\omega }}_p^{\prime }$, together with precisely determined external parameters, we determine $a_{\mu }=116592057(25)\times {10}^{-11}$ (0.21 ppm). Combining this result with our previous result from the 2018 data, we obtain $a_{\mu }(\mathrm{FNAL})=116592055(24)\times {10}^{-11}$ (0.20 ppm). The new experimental world average is $a_{\mu }(\exp )=116592059(22)\times {10}^{-11}$ (0.19 ppm), which represents a factor of 2 improvement in precision.

A new measurement of the magnetic anomaly a μ of the positive muon is presented based on data taken from 2020 to 2023 by the Muon g − 2 Experiment at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (FNAL). This dataset contains over 2.5 times the total statistics of our previous results. From the ratio of the precession frequencies for muons and protons in our storage ring magnetic field, together with precisely known ratios of fundamental constants, we determine a μ = 1 165 920 710 ( 162 ) × 10 − 12 (139 ppb) for the new datasets, and a μ = 1 165 920 705 ( 148 ) × 10 − 12 (127 ppb) when combined with our previous results. The new experimental world average, dominated by the measurements at FNAL, is a μ ( exp ) = 1 165 920 715 ( 145 ) × 10 − 12 (124 ppb). The measurements at FNAL have improved the precision on the world average by over a factor of 4.

We present details on a new measurement of the muon magnetic anomaly, $a_{\mu }=(g_{\mu }-2)/2$. The result is based on positive muon data taken at Fermilab’s Muon Campus during the 2019 and 2020 accelerator runs. The measurement uses $3.1\mathrm{GeV}/c$ polarized muons stored in a 7.1-m-radius storage ring with a 1.45 T uniform magnetic field. The value of $a_{\mu }$ is determined from the measured difference between the muon spin precession frequency and its cyclotron frequency. This difference is normalized to the strength of the magnetic field, measured using nuclear magnetic resonance. The ratio is then corrected for small contributions from beam motion, beam dispersion, and transient magnetic fields. We measure $a_{\mu }=116592057(25)\times {10}^{-11}$ (0.21 ppm). This is the world’s most precise measurement of this quantity and represents a factor of 2.2 improvement over our previous result based on the 2018 dataset. In combination, the two datasets yield $a_{\mu }(\mathrm{FNAL})=116592055(24)\times {10}^{-11}$ (0.20 ppm). Combining this with the measurements from Brookhaven National Laboratory for both positive and negative muons, the new world average is $a_{\mu }(\exp )=116592059(22)\times {10}^{-11}$ (0.19 ppm).

The determination of the direction of a stellar core collapse via its neutrino emission is crucial for the identification of the progenitor for a multimessenger follow-up. A highly effective method of reconstructing supernova directions within the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) is introduced. The supernova neutrino pointing resolution is studied by simulating and reconstructing electron-neutrino charged-current absorption on Ar 40 and elastic scattering of neutrinos on electrons. Procedures to reconstruct individual interactions, including a newly developed technique called “brems flipping,” as well as the burst direction from an ensemble of interactions are described. Performance of the burst direction reconstruction is evaluated for supernovae happening at a distance of 10 kpc for a specific supernova burst flux model. The pointing resolution is found to be 3.4 degrees at 68% coverage for a perfect interaction-channel classification and a fiducial mass of 40 kton, and 6.6 degrees for a 10 kton fiducial mass respectively. Assuming a 4% rate of charged-current interactions being misidentified as elastic scattering, DUNE’s burst pointing resolution is found to be 4.3 degrees (8.7 degrees) at 68% coverage.

ProtoDUNE Single-Phase (ProtoDUNE-SP) is a 770-ton liquid argon time projection chamber that operated in a hadron test beam at the CERN Neutrino Platform in 2018. We present a measurement of the total inelastic cross section of charged kaons on argon as a function of kaon energy using 6 and 7 GeV / c beam momentum settings. The flux-weighted average of the extracted inelastic cross section at each beam momentum setting was measured to be 380 ± 26 mbarns for the 6 GeV / c setting and 379 ± 35 mbarns for the 7 GeV / c setting.

The Mu2e experiment at Fermilab will search for the standard model-forbidden, charged lepton flavour-violating conversion of a negative muon into an electron in the field of an aluminium nucleus. The distinctive signal signature is represented by a mono-energetic electron with an energy near the muon’s rest mass. The experiment aims to improve the current single-event sensitivity by four orders of magnitude by means of a high-intensity pulsed muon beam and a high-precision tracking system. The electromagnetic calorimeter complements the tracker by providing high rejection power in muon to electron identification and a seed for track reconstruction while working in vacuum in presence of a 1 T axial magnetic field and in a harsh radiation environment. For 100 MeV electrons, the calorimeter should achieve: (a) a time resolution better than 0.5 ns, (b) an energy resolution <10%, and (c) a position resolution of 1 cm. The calorimeter design consists of two disks, each loaded with 674 undoped CsI crystals read out by two large-area arrays of UV-extended SiPMs and custom analogue and digital electronics. We describe here the status of construction for all calorimeter components and the performance measurements conducted on the large-sized prototype with electron beams and minimum ionizing particles at a cosmic ray test stand. A discussion of the calorimeter’s engineering aspects and the on-going assembly is also reported.
