It is 14 meters in diameter, but the gap is uniform to 25 microns. Data acquisition and detectors are the responsibility of the university collaborators, and our group has built the basic detector package, some specialized electronics, and a particle tracking system. The measurement will be done with positive muons in 1998 and with negative muons in 1999. Thus in a few years this experiment will either validate the Standard Model to a higher precision, or provide the first evidence for physics beyond the Standard Model. GSAC Talks are held every Tuesday and Thursday evening in Loomis 358.
Physics graduate students to a wide variety of research areas and potential advisors.
All first-year graduate sudents are strongly encouraged to attend.
