Description

The Muon g-2 Experiment at Fermilab is on track to measure the muon magnetic anomaly to better than 140 parts-per-billion (ppb), an unprecedented level of precision. The muon's magnetic anomaly is sensitivity to all sectors of the Standard Model (SM), and thus provides a stringent test of the SM's completeness. The Muon g-2 Collaboration published its most recent result last summer (August 2023), achieving a precision of 200 ppb based on the first three years of data. Additional data from three subsequent years of running are under active analysis. In this talk, I will describe the experimental technique, detail our most recent measurement, and give a status of the ongoing analysis of our final dataset.
