The Brookhaven muon g-2 experiment

Description

A new experiment is being mounted at BNL to measure the anomalous magnet moment of the muon to 3 parts in 107. In this talk I will describe the physics issues that this precision allows us to explore, the experimental method, and an interesting new device which we will use to inject muons into our muon storage ring. The device is a 1.45T non-ferrous superconducting magnet, where all fringe field is contained by a superconducting sheet
