The Muon g-2 Experiment at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (FNAL) has measured the muon anomalous precession frequency $ω_a$ to an uncertainty of 434 parts per billion (ppb), statistical, and 56 ppb, systematic, with data collected in four storage ring configurations during its first physics run 2018. When combined a precision measurement magnetic field experiment's ring, determines anomaly $a_μ({\rm FNAL}) = 116\,592\,040(54) \times 10^{-11}$ (0.46 ppm). This article describes...
The lunar-ranging test of the equivalence principle for gravitational self-energy is ambiguous. Although Earth has more than Moon, its sizable Fe/Ni core also gives it a different composition Moon. We removed this ambiguity by comparing, in effect, accelerations ``miniature'' earths and moons toward Sun. Our composition-dependent Earth-Moon acceleration,...

This normalized to strength field, using Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR). ratio...
We report on a new measurement of neutron beta-decay asymmetry. From the result A(0) = -0.1189(7), we derive ratio axial vector to coupling constant lambda g(A)/g(V) -1.2739(19). When included in world average for lifetime tau 885.7(7) s, this gives first element Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrix V(ud). With value and Particle Data Group values V(us) V(ub), find deviation from unitarity condition row CKM Delta 0.0083(28), which is 3.0 times stated error.

We evaluate the impact of recent developments in hadron phenomenology on extracting possible fundamental tensor interactions beyond standard model. show that a novel class observables, including chiral-odd generalized parton distributions, and transversity distribution function can contribute to constraints this quantity. Experimental extractions hadronic matrix elements, if sufficiently precise, will provide a, so far, absent testing ground for lattice QCD calculations.
On the basis of revisions some systematic errors, we reanalyzed electron-antineutrino angular correlation ($a$ coefficient) in free neutron decay inferred from recoil energy spectrum protons which are detected $4\ensuremath{\pi}$ by aSPECT spectrometer. With $a=\ensuremath{-}0.104\text{ }02(82)$ new value differs only marginally one published 2020. The experiment also has sensitivity to $b$, Fierz interference term. From a correlated $(b,a)$ fit proton spectrum, derive limit...

Static electric dipole moments of nondegenerate systems probe mass scales for physics beyond the Standard Model well those reached directly at high energy colliders. Discrimination between different models, however, requires complementary searches in atomic-molecular-and-optical, nuclear and particle physics. In this report, we discuss current status prospects near future a compelling suite such experiments, along with developments needed encompassing theoretical framework.
