Measurement of the Positive Muon Lifetime and Determination of the Fermi Constant to Part-per-Million Precision

D. M. Webber, V. Tishchenko, Q. ~Peng +30

We report a measurement of the positive muon lifetime to a precision of 1.0 parts per million (ppm); it is the most precise particle lifetime ever measured. The experiment used a t…

Data acquisition system for the MuLan muon lifetime experiment

V. Tishchenko, S. Battu, S. Cheekatmalla +8

We describe the data acquisition system for the MuLan muon lifetime experiment at Paul Scherrer Institute. The system was designed to record muon decays at rates up to 1 MHz and ac…

Improved Measurement of the Positive Muon Lifetime and Determination of the Fermi Constant

MuLan Collaboration, D. B. Chitwood, T. I. Banks +38

The mean life of the positive muon has been measured to a precision of 11 ppm using a low-energy, pulsed muon beam stopped in a ferromagnetic target, which was surrounded by a scin…
