MOPAF01	Muon g-2: An Interplay of Beam Dynamics and HEP
	M.J. Syphers Northern Illinois University, DeKalb, Illinois, USA
	The Fermilab experiment E989, Muon g-2, unites particle beam physics with a high energy physics experiment in a unique way. The close interplay of the understanding of particle beam dynamics and the preparation of the beam properties for the experimental measurement is tantamount to the reduction of systematic errors in the determination of the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon to unprecedented precision. The precision of the g-2 measurement will be increased by a factor of four over the most recent case (BNL, E821) mostly due to the increased statistics offered by the higher proton flux delivered by the Fermilab accelerators. However, it is possible that even further gains can be made through a better understanding of the muon beam being delivered to the g-2 Storage Ring. Several effects come into play that can contribute to systematic errors and for which detailed calculations and modeling of the incoming muon beam properties will aid in interpreting the results. Various correlations of spin and momentum, spin and position along the bunch, etc., will become important to understand during the analysis of the experiment’s data sets. While orders of magnitude of these types of effects are straightforward to estimate, detailed calculations and experimental verification of beam properties will be necessary to contribute to the sub-ppm accuracy of the g-2 measurement.
