The Muon (g-2) Experiment, E989 at Fermilab, will measure the muon anomalous magnetic moment a factor-of-four more precisely than was done in E821 Brookhaven National Laboratory AGS. result appears to be greater Standard-Model prediction by three standard deviations. When combined with expected improvement hadronic contributions, should able determine definitively whether or not is evidence for physics beyond Standard Model. After review of motivation and basic technique, which use storage...

In recent years, the gain suppression mechanism has been studied for large localized charge deposits in Low-Gain Avalanche Detectors (LGADs). LGADs are a thin silicon detector with highly doped layer that provides moderate internal signal amplification. Using CENPA Tandem accelerator at University of Washington, response different thicknesses to MeV-range energy from proton beam were studied. Three LGAD prototypes 50~$\mu$m, 100~$\mu$m, 150~$\mu$m characterized. The devices' was determined...
