Muonium spectroscopy

  • 1. Universitaet Heidelberg, Physikalisches Institut (Germany)

Description

The electromagnetic interactions of electrons and muons can be described to very high accuracy within the framework of standard theory, in particular within the hydrogen like muonium atom. Therefore, precision measurements are able to test basic interactions in physics and to search for yet unknown forces. Accurate values for fundamental constants can be obtained. Results from experiments on the ground state hyperfine structure and the 1s-2s intervals in muonium are described together with their relations to a new measurement of the muon magnetic anomaly
