In Search of New Physics: New Result from the MEG II Collaboration
On the occasion of a special seminar at the Paul Scherrer Institut (PSI) in Switzerland on 23 April 2024 the scientific collaboration of the MEG II experiment presented an important new result in the search for the decay of a positive muon into a positron and a photon. The findings, based on data collected in 2021 and 2022, are detailed in a paper published on arXiv and submitted to the journal Physical Review Letters.
IMPACT: Upgrade an PSI-Forschungsanlage beschlossen
Die Finanzierung der Umbauten an der Protonenbeschleunigeranlage des PSI wurde vom Schweizer Parlament bewilligt.
Exotics among the atoms
Muon experiments at the PSI are focusing on different isotopes.
