Muon (μ) tomography imaging technology, as an important supplement to existing technologies such as X-ray and neutron imaging, has a wide range of important applications in fields such as natural disaster warning, mineral exploration, as well as interdisciplinary fields such as geology and archaeology. MPGD based muon track detection is one of the important technical schemes for...
Electric dipole moments (EDMs) of elementary particles are powerful probes of physics beyond the Standard Model with CP violation. The reported discrepancy in the muon anomalous magnetic moment motivates us to explore to what extent new physics with CP violation to address the discrepancy is probed by ongoing and projected searches for the muon EDM. In this talk, we discuss two benchmark...
A permanent electric dipole moment (EDM) in any elementary particle implies CP symmetry violation and thus could help explain the matter-antimatter asymmetry observed in the universe. Within the Standard Model (SM) prediction, the Muon EDM is extremely small (1e-36 e cm), but in some of the BSM theories with LFUV, the muon EDM could be as large as 1e-22 e cm. The 17-order magnitude difference...
