Future Muon Dipole Moment Measurements

Abstract

From the famous experiments of Stern and Gerlach to the present, measurements of magnetic dipole moments, and searches for electric dipole moments of ``elementary'' particles have played a major role in our understanding of sub-atomic physics. In this talk I discuss the progress on measurements and theory of the magnetic dipole moment of the muon. I also discuss a new proposal to search for a permanent electric dipole moment (EDM) of the muon and put it into the more general context of other EDM searches. These experiments, along with searches for the lepton flavor violating decays $\mu \to e\gamma$ and ${\mu }^{-}+A\to e^{-}+A$, provide a path to the high-energy frontier through precision measurements.
