The goal of the new Muon g-2 E989 experiment at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (FNAL) is a precise measurement of the muon anomalous magnetic moment, aμ ≡ (g-2)/2. The previous BNL experiment measured the anomaly aμ(BNL) with an uncertainty of 0.54 parts per million (ppm). The discrepancy between the current standard model calculation of the aμ(SM) and the previous measurement aμ(BNL) is over 3σ. The FNAL Muon g-2 experiment aims at increasing the precision to 140 parts per billion (ppb) to resolve the discrepancy between the theoretical …
