Potential for a new muon g-2 experiment

preprint2010arXivOpen access

Abstract

A new experiment to measure the muon g-2 factor is proposed. We suppose the sensitivity of this experiment to be about 0.03 ppm. The developed experiment can be performed on an ordinary storage ring with a noncontinuous field created by usual magnets. When the total length of straight sections of the ring is appropriate, the spin rotation frequency becomes almost independent of the particle momentum. In this case, a high-precision measurement of an average magnetic field can be carried out with polarized proton beams. A muon beam energy can be arbitrary. Possibilities to avoid a betatron resonance are analyzed and corrections to the g-2 frequency are considered.
