Physicists in Japan have accelerated muons in the most precise, high-intensity beam to date, with energies high as 100 keV. The achievement could enable next-generation experiments – including more precise measurements of the muon's anomalous magnetic moment, g-2. ⚛️🧪 physicsworld.com/a/high-quali...
