Fermilab Muon Experiment Building Breaks Ground

From the creator

Fermilab and Department of Energy officials broke ground on a new building that will house the Muon g-2 experiment. The new experiment will study the magnetic wobble of muons, and the core of the experiment—a 50-foot-wide electromagnet—will be transported this summer in one piece by barge and truck from Brookhaven National Laboratory in New York. The Muon g-2 experiment will be the first to use a new beam of muons from Fermilab's upgraded accelerator complex. A second experiment called Mu2e is also planned.
